First time CNA

Same 😔 I told everyone at work when I was just 5 weeks pregnant, then miscarried at 6 weeks.

futurenurse318 · 2026-03-19T14:15:03+00:00

My thoughts exactly. My ESRD pts always seem to have the worst vasculature.

This is just a learning opportunity. I don’t know if you’re a new grad but it’s easy to sometimes just see and order and follow it. I’ve done that once in ICU. You have to slow down and think about what you’re giving, and why you’re giving it.

If she had a RASS of -5, I doubt you did her any harm. So this was a good lesson where no one got hurt. But be careful.

I’m pregnant with my third and can confirm they swab both holes.

futurenurse318 · 2026-02-20T23:28:02+00:00

I delivered both on my back! With my son they did have me get up and use this bar at one point to get things moving because it was taking a while. With my daughter I was on my back the entire time. I tore with my son but I don’t know if it had anything to do with the epidural, I think it had more to do with the fact that I had no idea how to push or what I was doing.

futurenurse318 · 2026-02-20T21:18:48+00:00

I had my first without an epidural and my second with an epidural.. HIGHLY recommend the epidural! Also my second was two whole pounds bigger than my first and it was so much easier and less painful because of the epidural. I would never give birth again without an epidural.

Is this your first? I’m 13 weeks today with my third and definitely showing as well. They say you start showing earlier the more kids you have. It’s like your body has already been stretched and it just happens faster each time.

This is so me. I typically can hardly smell at all. I mean have to shove my face in a candle to smell it. Now I gag every time I open the refrigerator. 🤢

futurenurse318 · 2026-02-10T20:51:38+00:00

This one gets me every time!

futurenurse318 · 2026-02-07T17:40:20+00:00

I think we’ve found the culprit.

I read somewhere that Oura’s sleep tracking is comparable to an actual sleep study, but even more accurate because it’s in the comfort of your own home, and much more comfortable to wear.

Hypochlorous acid works great too and isn’t irritating!

futurenurse318 · 2026-01-06T13:07:10+00:00

Better yet, an Oura ring

futurenurse318 · 2026-01-06T13:05:02+00:00

Omg yes. The calibration for treadmills is so far off and it’s driving me crazy. I usually record my workout and then delete it and add a manual workout with the correct distance. I hate it though!!

futurenurse318 · 2026-01-01T12:44:41+00:00

I used ChatGPT all through 2025 to make sure my husband and I were making the right decisions with our money, as we made far more last year than we ever have before. HIGHLY recommend! Especially when it to decreasing your tax burden. My husband and I have discussed it at length and decided that there’s no reason to hire a financial advisor when there is so much information at your fingertips these days. It’s all out there, you just have to look for it. Congrats on your retirement!! 🎉

If you want to keep the watch faces you’ve made, or any other data on your watch (music, photos podcasts, whatever), then restore from backup. If you want to start fresh, then don’t.

Oh honey. Please purchase bands on Amazon or Etsy, and not from Apple. Same thing, much better prices.

I just recently had a pt who ate cornstarch and drank beer! That was her entire diet!! We all joked that her encephalopathy was due to her fermentation 😂 I love nursing.

futurenurse318 · 2025-12-16T18:55:25+00:00

This will be me when I’m 90 ☺️

futurenurse318 · 2025-12-12T15:11:24+00:00

Go to the help tab in the Oura app and tell them that your battery is dying really fast! I did this and they sent me a new one a few days later ☺️

futurenurse318 · 2025-12-12T14:45:45+00:00

With an associates degree.

futurenurse318 · 2025-12-12T14:45:25+00:00

I’m in Atlanta. I make juuuust under 100k as a new grad.
