Going into labor at 24 weeks with a history of pulmonary embolism and previous high risk pregnancy, i felt so comfortable being at the hospital during pre and post partum, the nurses and drs were so kind, gentle, thoughtful. So very understanding, they were amazing! I hadn’t shaved in weeks, hadn’t showered in days, was leaking fluid for 4 days and i was practically nude and had my private parts looked at to insure no infection and i never felt discouraged or disrespected. I said in the beginning “do whatever you need to do to keep me alive/healthy” they were so kind ! So thank you for what you do ! I wasn’t a patient of yours lol but thank you for the care you provide the patients !!! Means so much

The hospital can’t MAKE you breastfeed. They can encourage it . Your sister probably was encouraged by a nurse who was too pushy and she felt like she couldn’t say no that’s not what I want for my baby. The hospital can’t make you do anything you don’t want to do. Even life saving treatment.

I'm interested in being a postpartum nurse. I've thought about going for labor and delivery nurse and also a nicu nurse, but I feel like a postpartum nurse would be less stressful. Any nurses or anyone with knowledge, please correct me if I'm wrong
@Romi_joy3 жыл бұрын
all units no matter where you work can be very stressful! it just depends on what level of stress you are comfortable with. For example, in ER there are emergencies left and right and nurses running codes. Some people love that level of stress and thrive in that environment. In postpartum, things can go wrong where moms can hemorrhage or bleed alot, or something goes wrong with the baby (less likely than something happening to mom but still happens). Wherever you go you will be trained to handle situations like this. For the most part, postpartum is a wonderful experience and you mostly take care of healthy moms and babies. While you rotate through nursing clinicals including labor and delivery, NICU, and postpartum, you get to see some of everything and that will help you in your decision.

@Romi_joy3 жыл бұрын
Lots of nurses I know can’t do vomit either and have to leave the room to get some nausea medicine, but don’t let that hold you back! It’s just one small thing to being a nurse. I can tolerate it no problem and stand there comforting the patient while they do it, but the other nurses say it’s mind over matter. Control your gag reflex before it triggers such as counting your fingers or reading something on the whiteboard, it’ll help your mind focus. If you simply cannot tolerate it, leave the room and tell the pt you’re going to get them medicine. By the time you get back, they should be done and everything will be in a nice little remiss bag thrown away and you can give them the medicine without having to deal with any of it!!

I am in awe that you have only 2 to 3 couplets. We usually start with 4-5 high risk couplets (that’s 8-10 moms and babies), discharge a few, and admit several more per RN. We handle chorioamnionitis, hemorrhages, preeclamptic moms, respiratory distress, jaundice, infants with renal & cardiac issues requiring VCUGs or echocardiograms, etc. That’s our regular floor, not NICU. I usually walk (run) 10 miles a day, and I’m in my 50’s.
@Romi_joy3 жыл бұрын
omg! I wouldn't know what to do with 4-5 couplets, especially those with multiple issues like you handle. How do you like it? Do you find yourself burned out/stressed or do you enjoy it? We definitely don't care for babies in respiratory distress, they go to NICU for any kind of distress. Our floor is normally for the the high risk moms including maggers, step down ICU from DIC, hemorrhages requiring transfusion, basically anything abnormal from a normal delivery and any high risk babies go to nursery where they will do minor renal/cardiac issues, jaundice, iv abx, etc. Are you just a normal postpartum floor? I'm so curious because I would be so stressed handling all those patients.

@yolie zackschewski I work L&D and it's very much like an ER, laboring and OR/PACU environment but with pregnant moms and babies. It's super fast pace and things can go scary in some deliveries. Always have to be ready for an emergency. If you like that adrenaline you'll like L&D. I've done it for a year and I know I won't be doing it longterm. Unfortunately very exhausting and stressful for my type of personality. But I also think it depends what hospital you work in and nicu level of care. People are getting sicker during pregnancy and it sometimes feels like an ICU. But I do love helping these pts during their laboring process it very rewarding. Unfortunately, the shortage of nursing staff I think is making this unit harder because we are given more patients than Normally recommended and can sometimes feel unsafe. But hey try it you might just love it:) it really is a personality thing. If you like adrenaline, busy, and mom's and baby's this may just be good for you. :)

Do all hospitals have donor breast milk? When I was at the hospital my milk wasn’t able to come in and my baby lost a lot of weight so they got concerned and said they should feed him a bit of formula.

@Romi_joy3 жыл бұрын
hi there, not every hospital has donor breast milk as some do not have milk banks nearby or they just use it for premature babies only. If they have it available for all babies for supplementation purposes the hospital should ask you before you deliver if it is something you are interested in. I'm sorry about your experience, I hope breastfeeding is going well! If you decide on another baby, you can around at different hospitals in your area if they have it if that is something you are interested in 😊

Hi Romi! I loved this video I am currently a TELE nurse but have floated to postpartum multiple times and find that I truly love that floor. I feel our joy and happiness being postpartum and on TELE not so much.. I’m hesitant about switching floors because I’m a new grad and feel as though I’m learning a lot on tele I’m just not happy tho.. any advice or suggestions? How did you decide postpartum was for you?
@Romi_joy2 жыл бұрын
I loved women's health when I did clinicals in nursing school and couldn't imagine myself anywhere else!!! my advice is if you feel joy and happiness when you are on postpartum then switch!! I think you will find joy and be happy because you already feel that way when you are on that floor!! I'll never get tired of taking care of mommas and babies so try it out :) the beauty of nursing is you can always switch out of specialties anytime!

Hi Faith! Thanks for joining the fam ❤️ Try not to be too hard on yourself with all the new information you will learn right out of nursing school, you will be a pro soon and don't be afraid to ask for help when you need it 😊 Practice those cervical checks on a cervix measurement ruler often!

Hello I just realized I had both of my girls at the same hospital that you work for, I do have a question my oldest was born November 2015 my youngest was born June 2020. I have been dealing though with heavy postpartum depression issues and its getting worse does OB triage help with this??
@Romi_joy3 жыл бұрын
Hi I’m sorry you are going through this, please come to OB triage if you are having thoughts of hurting yourself or your loved ones and we will take care of you. If not, contact your doctor as soon as you read this, so we can get you help to start feeling better. You got this momma you are strong.

That seems like a lot of medications...does that transfer to the breastmilk/baby?
@Romi_joy3 жыл бұрын
all medications can transfer to the breastmilk in traces, but all of them are considered safe to take while breastfeeding, or else we wouldn't give them :)
