I think my favorite part of this whole exam is her looking at you and smiling! I miss being a NICU nurse :( but thank you for this demonstration! FNP to be!!

[@thegirlwholovesback___3201]

[@NurseLiz]

I'm in NP clinicals and knew I was going to be seeing a 2month old for the first time today. I watched this video twice to prepare. SO HELPFUL. THANK YOU!!

[@Lyonesss101]

Just started RN Peds classes, this is helping me picture my assessments! Thank you so much! What a healthy happy baby! I also love how smooth you started talking to parents about themselves and life at home ❤ Thank You!

[@jensfbay1]

I had to listen again cuz I was so distracted by the cuteness. omg, her smile! ;)

[@Zeldybear]

I love the new intro!! Thank you for demonstrating on Piper and thank Piper for being a willing participant 😊

[@NurseLiz]

Joe says thank you!! He is very pleased that someone commented on his new intro haha So I appreciate you

[@ZohyChan]

[@NurseLiz]

Of course! Hope it goes well!

[@tiaw.9467]

[@NurseLiz]

Thank you!!

[@luberini]

very informative and ADORABLE video!!!! and between baby yawns, smiles and sneezes honestly i can't choose just one

[@beebaboos1]

Sweet baby noises 🥰 I mean great content and all but those baby noises are perfection.

[@NurseLiz]

They really are!!

[@vintagepanda9410]

I’m super excited to start nursing school (Bachelors of Nursing) on the 17th Feb. I have my Assistant In Nursing qualification so I won’t be going in completely blind😂. A massive hello and love you from Sydney, Australia 🇦🇺💙. It also may or may not be midnight here but I’m a night owl and I have priorities of wasting my sleep time on the internet like any other sane person😂.

[@NurseLiz]

Congrats on your nursing school acceptance! And hello! I find it wild that people in Australia are watching. So thank you!!

[@melodieneil712]

Your little sweet girl is precious!!!

[@NurseLiz]

🥰

[@MelissaReist]

Love love love the new intro! Can’t believe Piper is already two - seems like you were just announcing your pregnancy. She’s such a mini Avery! Baby sneezes are the cutest for me 💕

[@NurseLiz]

Thank you! and I know! I can't handle how fast she is growing.

[@Zizzyyzz]

Baby smiles! :-D

[@NurseLiz]

the best!

[@ania8009]

What a cute happy baby!!

[@NurseLiz]

She is just a content little thing!

[@MzShonuff123]

Thank you for this, even though I was mostly focused on Piper's baby smiles. Thank you for your service, Piper.

[@NurseLiz]

She was happy to oblige haha

[@keeliedyson5032]

This was super helpful, relevant, and perfectly explained. I am about to start my Peds rotation for FNP school and using some of your videos to help me study and prepare. Thanks so much!

[@lauraforstedt7194]

OMG such a happy, adorable, sweet girl! Becoming an aunt was when I realized I wanted to be a nurse, particularly a NICU nurse. Then I became a mom and IDK if I can handle NICU, but still sooo looking forward to being a nurse. So excited to (hopefully) start an accelerated nursing program in May (Ill hear about an interview in a week and final admission by end of Feb). Hoping I get some instructors/preceptors like you, I have fallen in love with you videos and watched so many in the last week! Please keep it up, though I know life with 2 young kids and work can get very crazy!

[@NurseLiz]

She is such a chill little baby! Congrats on your nursing school admission! Thats so exciting! You got this!

[@uhlyssuhx]

I just graduated nursing school and i remember watching your night nurse video in peds and being so excited for the future. Now watching this with your adorable baby made me even more excited to work in peds :’) and nicu and picu. I can’t wait! She is so darn cute

[@NurseLiz]

Thank you! and congratulations on graduating!!

[@jadelynn8655]

Hmm That’s a hard one... I’d have to say yawn too. It’s just too adorable! Piper is such a happy baby ❤️

[@NurseLiz]

She is such a content little thing! baby yawns 😍

[@alberta6662]

Hi Liz Thank you for an excellent demonstration of the two-month-old health assessment and featuring Piper (super cute) it was awesome. You did such a great job of explaining the exam, the milestones baby should be meeting at this time and connecting all the dots including screening mom for postpartum depression. Thanks for sharing😊

[@NurseLiz]

thank you!!

[@veronicapaxton9166]

I also hope if the parents have chosen to take a delayed vaccine schedule or not vaccinate at this time that they are respected by their health care providers as that’s the bases of informed consent

[@christinabulman4112]

Thank you! I'm in my pedi rotation for my FNP but have been an adult nurse most of my career. The reinforcement of learned material with a visual is really helpful. Also, your daughter is adorable!

[@heatherswett2480]

LOVE THE INTRO!!!!! So simple and sleek 😉

[@NurseLiz]

Thank yiou!!

[@Sealegs9]

Piper could not be cuter!!!!!

[@NurseLiz]

aww thank you!

[@prik4727]

Thank you so much for this, your daughter is so cute! And this was so helpful

[@eme9928]

This is incredibly helpful! Just about to start my peds rotation inFNP school. Thank you Nurse Liz!

[@NurseLiz]

Hope it goes well!

[@priyakenkare8201]

Baby Piper u r one snuggly cuddleball and u r such an alert attentive and accommodative model. Ur expressions, cooing sounds and killer smiles at Mom are heart melting enough for me NOT to hear anything Mommy Madam is looking to educate me on.

[@NurseLiz]

aww thanks!

[@ritaperry6312]

please let me know when the binder will be available

[@tomg.1309]

Thanks for the references as well; very helpful, clear.

[@NurseLiz]

I"m so glad! Thanks for watching!

[@drei000]

Great video what do you look for when listening? Many thanks in advance

[@kyledoesfinance7508]

Really good video Liz. I’m new around here. I’m a student nurse documenting my journey so love videos like this❤️

[@NurseLiz]

awesome! Welcome!

[@Merscouponcorner]

Thank you SO much Liz and cute little Miss Piper! I used your newborn assessment to study for women's and now that I am in peds this is perfect! Love all the helpful tips about milestones etc. and it helps when the model is so adorable!

[@NurseLiz]

So glad it was helpful!

[@xbriannaxbananax]

Love the intro!

[@NurseLiz]

Thanks! Joe appreciates that you noticed

[@amandapalazzolo5886]

Hi my 2 month and half baby’s pediatrician said she heart mumur. Is this concerning?

[@shyamabarman2477]

is your baby's torticollis improve now?

[@anuradhananayakkara7821]

My 2 month old doesn't raise her head yet. What should I do?

[@HININA]

omg shes so behaved!

[@NurseLiz]

She’s super chill!

[@LeandroSalazarVlogs]

PIPEEERR 💙💙

[@wendye2916]

Excellent video, but I wish you would go more in depth on how to talk to parents about vaccines. It is a source of fear I have going into clinical this year.

[@NurseLiz]

I'm gonna do a whole video on that at some point! It's gonna be a long chat haha. The best thing is to educate yourself on facts so you have a solid basis to educate THEM and address their specific concerns. The resources I linked are great for that

[@Jason-ig1kg]

i didnt expect a real baby

[@alliedavis8111]

This is great! But for children younger than 3'ish, don't you pull down and back? Older children and adults up and back.

[@deenamajeed4933]

you have assessing a 7 month old child brought to clinic For a well baby check up you expect which of the following behaviour to develop first in a healthy 7 month old child??

[@AshleyLaren]

Piper is the absolute cutest! I just started the FNP program last semester and videos like these are great to see to learn right now! Quick question, currently in pathophysiology, do you have any resources or tips for studying in this course?

[@NurseLiz]

I do! If you search "Nurse liz pathophysiology" on youtube it should show up :)

[@karat529]

At what age do you stop palpating femoral pulses?

[@NurseLiz]

That is an excellent question. I feel like I stop doing them around 3 ish years. But honestly sometimes I forget to do them after they turn one and are running around like crazies or hate you haha

[@karat529]

Nurse Liz thanks for the reply! I’m a bedside peds nurse and I feel like it’s a little bit of a gray area...I usually switch to pedal pulses like after 3-6 months ish....but honesty I’ve never been told when the appropriate time is so that’s just by my own judgement 😂🤔

[@NurseLiz]

Kara T I almost always did pedal when working bedside!

[@rukayatabiodun7038]

My baby not gaining weight she is 2month and I’m very worried

[@new_teen_momof_twin_boys4212]

I’m a 15 year old new mom to a 4 week old son, is it normal for the baby to grab there genitals?

[@jessicajones3046]

I believe physical abuse is common among women especially after birth. Can you speak to that ? Such as signs of abuse to look for in mom and child. Have you ever had this experience in practice?

[@NurseLiz]

I haven't personally seen a lot of that, but completely agree that it is a common phenomenon. And so incredibly sad. Often screening for this is best performed by the mother's healthcare team, but definitely something to think about incorporating it into the child's well exam as well

[@Latte-girly90]

What? I never heard of this before?

[@TheLizaBeastly]

Would be cool for you to use more gender neutral terms when talking about the parents. Not every family has a mom and dad 🤷‍♀️

[@NurseLiz]

very true. I'll rephrase that next time!
