Hi SmilingBluEyes: Thanks for responding to my post - yes the questions you suggested are a big help. I am preparing myself for the interviews with them. I am just wondering if anyone can also think of some clinical case-based questions that I might be asked? All your help is greatly appreciated!

Hi Everyone: This is a great forum - I have learned a lot about OB/L&D just from reading over all of the threads - your responses are always helpful and caring and demonstrate the best of nurses and how we should all be to one another. I am a new grad and I am currently interviewing for L&D, PP positions (although after reading these threads I am beginning to see the wisdom in starting in PP). I am wondering if anyone can help me with the following: 1) For those of you who are working in L&D - can you tell me why you like this area of nursing? I have my own ideas of why I might like it but I would like to hear from some professionals about what it is about nursing in obstetrics, L&D, PP, etc which is satisfying 2) As well any help you can offer on case-based questions the interviewer might ask me (e.g. i had one PP questions regarding hemhorraging and assessment, e.g. remember to check the fundus, cross & type patient, order a unit, etc.). Any help you can offer would be greatly appreciated!
