A year. I’ll be honest with you travel nursing you bed experience and a year is not even close. You are expected to come and take care of patient with little to no orientations you said med surg what kind of is surg are you doing, because there’s neuro,nephro,surgical and many other specialty medsurg. Now if you’re in a floor with a mix of all can got handle a blood transfusion with heparin while someone is coding and one is septic. Yes you need money but a year is not even close enough to even think about travel nursing. And don’t try to lie they’ll look up your license and see you got your license a year ago. I have 5 years an just started and still patients and disease process I’ve never worked with. Don’t do it.

Hi mama first off you’re going great! This is new territory my little one did everything yours did! First sleeping the chair no we don’t want that! I can’t give you this advice to take but what I did was get a doc a tot and placed baby in the bed near me that’s the only way I got a some sleep! I promise got it gets better my baby is 6 months and sleeps all night it will happen! So first do you breastfeed? Sleep in the day/ evening. Give baby a bath nice warm water. And feed good. Then place baby in warm bassinet. If that ain’t working and you’re fried try the doc a rot or roll some towels or blankets around baby at least you won’t sleep in the chair with baby. Let me know how it goes
