  1. Hopeful Someday CNM...

    OP, I am interested to see how you are doing now? How did your OB rotation go? Did you pursue doula training? I have been considering doing doula training to make myself more marketable after...
  2. New Grad Resume Help for L&D

    Off topic a bit, but I was wondering if, as a student, I can take the online course and get certified to read EFM? I noticed on the website that it says that it is intended for RNs, APRNs, some...
  3. Snacks for 12-hour shifts

    Cocoa covered almonds work for me! They come in individual bags. Also, some gummy bears in a plastic baggy in case you need a fast pick me up. You can buy snack size plastic baggies and fill them with...

  6. Disgusting Icky Stickies: Nurse Protect Yourself

    Excellent article! Just want to add a probably worthless comment....I taught Spanish in high school for about 3-4 months and was sick almost the whole time. I was afraid that I would be the same when...
  7. Early Release of Mom's and Infants

    Actually here in south carolina, all medicaid patients have the option to have a post partum home visit by a nurse. I wish all insurance providers would di
  8. Circ boards

    Thank you all so much for your feedback. I was surprised that my brother-in-law actually wanted to see this and even more surprised that he said that my nephew sucked his thumb. I guess it is very...
  9. Antepartum Nurses..

    Probably not that helpful, but my one clinical day that I spent on antepartum was centered around a SA at 16 weeks. We had to dress the poor fetus in a tiny gown and a knit cap. It was heart...
  10. Early Release of Mom's and Infants

    Anecdotal, I know, but I had my son in a hospital and was begging to go home in 10 hours and was finally let go at just over 24 hours. Later, I had my daughter at a FSBC and was home 4 hours later...
  11. Sex-ed

    I thought we were talking about the way a school nurse should address (or not) Media? Why is this all of a sudden about if Media is good or
  12. Delayed Cord Clamping

    OP, you may want to post something in the CNM section, as they seem to be some of the few that actually do
  13. Delayed Cord Clamping

    I attend the medical university's nursing program and we talked about delayed cord clamping and EBP, but during my OB rotation at the same hospital, they did NOT delay the cord clamping.
  14. Circ boards

    I've heard of swaddling the arms instead of strapping, too. I guess I have just never heard of leaving the arms free for the obvious risk of getting cut or causing some other sort of accident if they...
  15. Circ boards

    There was no question of the legs being loose, my brother in law claims that the ARMS are loose and the my nephew was sucking his
  16. Circumcision

    I know this has been a long time since this was posted, but OMG, the foreskin is NOT an evolutionary 'leftover.' It protects that glans and helps with lubrication. I'm sorry you did not learn that in...

  18. HELP: How Extensive Are Hiring Background Checks?

    So as long as you make under $600, you do NOT need to claim your independent contractor job, as you will not receive a 1099 misc (I own a small co, so I do have experience with this). If you make more...
  19. Are you kidding? I would NEVER work anywhere in which I got penalized for using the bathroom, much less pay for school that did such. You need to report her to whoever is the next in command at your...
  20. Questions Regarding CNM/WHNP

    FWIW, I did a quick search on indeed.com for midwife jobs in Nebraska and got 0 hits. There are a couple for WHNP. Womens Health Nurse Practitioner Jobs, Employment in Nebraska |
  21. Esme Needs Your Prayers

    Is there any update to Esme's status?? She is such an integral part of AN, I pray for her speedy recovery and return to
  22. What kind of RN do you want to be?

    I want to be a Midwife, so I will probably look for a position in L&D, but I also like wound
  23. Studying Anatomy and Physiology

    I passed A&P I and II with an A in each without reading at all. I used our professors power points, took notes during class, made flashcards where
  24. Random Valuable NCLEX Facts :)

    I disagree. I believe people do the PVT hoping that they did pass, not because they are ready to re-register. From what I have read on here, when people fail they create a new study plan and register...
  25. Random Valuable NCLEX Facts :)

    Oh please. If you are doing the PVT at all, you are not seriously planning on re-registering.
