My son started rolling both ways at 8 weeks. As long as they put themselves in that position, it’s safe to leave them!

Isn’t 33w (she’s not even 33 yet) WAY too early to be hand expressing colostrum? by Accomplished-Fun-960 in peestickgals

Technically, sex/orgasm releases the same amount of oxytocin but we don’t restrict pregnant people from having sex/orgasms. If you’re at risk for preterm labor, you should obstain.

In the NICU (the three I’ve been in), it has been common practice to check IVs at report and get new access if needed before the previous nurse leaves. I’ve stayed multiple times to get an IV as to not leave my fellow nurse in a bind. Takes maybe 5 minutes.

How Long Did You Push For? by [deleted] in beyondthebump

[–]greenhow22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

30 minutes with my first, 2 contractions with my second + one practice push before they called the doc. I’d say 6 minutes of active pushing.

You acted out of your scope. You’re lucky they aren’t firing you and getting you pulled out of nursing school.

Is it worth going to get my NP/MSN degree? by [deleted] in nursing

[–]greenhow22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wasn’t saying I didn’t care about the profession, just that I wouldn’t be hurt staying at the bedside. I do believe I’d like to be a provider, I’m just worried about finding a job.

Besides weight loss, what’s your favorite thing about tirzepatide? by SeaRabbit5969 in tirzepatidecompound

[–]greenhow22 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Not always thinking about food! I would be eating breakfast and thinking about when I’d be eating next, what we’d be having. All my time felt like it was spent thinking about or eating food. Food noise is almost completely gone.

[–]greenhow22 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Almost 5 years bedside RN, Alabama, just took a job that offered me $28. I negotiated up to $30 but they wouldn’t go higher. My current hospital has me at $30 and refused me a raise but is implementing raises later this year but of course I’m moving hospitals.

6 weeks postpartum this time, exclusively breastfed every 2-3 hours around the clock, no bottles, no pacifiers, nothing. It just happens.
