Hello Everyone! I am currently half way through my BSN. I still have a little ways to go before graduation but I figure it is never too early to be prepared :). My one true goal and my dream is to one day become a CNM...and to get there I first need to enter the competitive world of L&D nursing. I am extremely passionate about my goals and I am willing to do whatever it takes to make them come true! So I am wondering what I can do and how early I can do them to help me stand out as a new graduate in L&D? I was planning on taking fetal heart monitoring classes as well as getting my NRP certification the summer before graduation. Is this a good idea...is it too early? What other things can I do to increase my chances and to show hiring managers that I am truly dedicated and passionate about this area? Thank you so much in advance for any advice you have. I can't wait to be an RN!
