The moms at my hospital require a lot. Blood pressure monitoring and meds, insulin & sugar checks, IV antibiotics, blood transfusions, hemorrhorages, vaccines, and we have a lot of C-sections, so that comes with a lot of nausea & nausea meds. We also take care of late preterm babies, babies on IV antibiotics, babies with jaundice on phototherapy, babies with minor heart defects requiring echocardiograms, and we frequently have 8 patients and have gone up to 10 before. Oh, and providing lactation assistance, oh my. It takes so much time.

Yes! This video is so spot on. I previously also worked in the pediatric emergency room (which I loved) and am now in mother/baby. I'm not sure what I was expecting coming to mother/baby, but now that I've been here a few months, it's not what I was expecting lol a lot of ppl think it's "easy nursing", they call it boring and where nurses come to retire, but you def have to learn how to manage your time effectively because IT IS a very busy unit. Very much task oriented and fast paced. We may not be high acuity patients like ER or med/surg / tele, but some mom's have their issues that make your shift overwhelming. But I also miss the ER, the excitement of it and starting IV's and all the skill sets you get to practice on a regular basis. It's nice to know there's other nurses to feel how and what I feel ❤

Mother-baby is a great field but in my opinion if you are not intending to stay in OB then it’s not the best place to start just because of the skills that you’re missing out on. Transferring to PICU made me realize this big time. But it is a very rewarding job and can definitely be busy at times, just a different type of busy!
