  1. opinions about epidurals

    prinsessa replied to Jayla's topic in Ob/Gyn

    I'm not a nurse yet, but I did give birth to two children....one totally natural and one not so natural. I perferred the natural birth (even though it was 24 hours longer). With my DD, I mostly...

    prinsessa replied to luvmy3kids's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    prinsessa replied to prinsessa's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    prinsessa replied to eng_nurse's topic in Ob/Gyn

    prinsessa replied to new_mom2005's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

  6. Do you prefer buying books that already have writing in them?

    prinsessa replied to amlaboy's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I can't stand books that have highlighting or writing in them. I bought a used book once and it drove me crazy. I always highlight things that I can't remember or things I know that I need to know....

    prinsessa replied to new_mom2005's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

  13. Police Killed Our Patient

    prinsessa replied to Meerkat's topic in General Nursing

    That is very sad. My brother is mentally ill. We had to call the cops on him numerous times because he was out of control (thankfully now he is doing much better). I know spouses of cops want their...

  14. Anyone apply to UIC or Rush for BSN?

    prinsessa replied to DermNP2Be's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I will be applying to both of those schools later this year. I heard both of them are really hard to get into and you have to have close to a 4.0. I don't know if it is true or not. I plan on...

  15. Stinky Co Worker

    prinsessa replied to Meerkat's topic in General Nursing

  16. What drives you on?

    prinsessa replied to reese19's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I changed majors a few times before deciding on nursing. Every time I picked a major it didn't seem quite right. Finally my mom suggested nursing to me. I like nursing because there are so many...

  17. How hard is Statistics?

    prinsessa replied to soko2002's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    prinsessa replied to cdietrich404's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

  19. Which is harder A&PI or A&PII?

    prinsessa replied to taniasjijo's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I thought that A&P I was a little harder because of all the memorization. Our teacher was easy though and told us exactly what would be on the test. I still studied my butt off though. I...

    prinsessa replied to Pixiesmom's topic in Illinois Nursing

  23. For the eyes of the "older" pre-nursing students only!

    prinsessa replied to stpauligirl's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Well my mom thinks it is funny if I describe a woman in her 50s as "older" (since she is in her 50s). She says, "oh...you mean older like me". I'm sure she would laugh that people in their 40s think...

  24. For the eyes of the "older" pre-nursing students only!

    prinsessa replied to stpauligirl's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Sorry....I thought the original post said something about people born after 1987.....so I thought older meant people born before 1987
