    Emergent replied to Mr. Murse's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    False Pregnancy (Pseudocyesis)

    Emergent posted a topic in Ob/Gyn

    Have any of you encountered women who have false pregnancies? I've been reading up on this of late because I suspect a nurse friend might be going through this. She's in her late 50s and told us all...
