I haven't had a chance to write in over a month. My daughter now crawls everywhere super fast and is crawling up on things and even walking with toys. Crazy how the time flies isn't it?
I've been studying for my Inpatient OB exam. Comes up in about a month. I'm kinda excited, but really nervous that I don't know everything I need to. I'm already thinking of what exam I would want to do next. Thats even scarier. LOL :)
I've started teaching prenatal classes. I love them. I love being able to meet these couples and work with them on the type of birth experience they desire. I hoping to bring my fellow nurse Annie on board to start teaching with me.
I was preparing for a birth class when I found this article that made me want to spread it everywhere at work. It was talking about your due date and how we as a society need to start referring to this is a "maybe date". I've attached the handout. My favorite part is the part on the bottom where it talks about how if we can't even get the science and timing down to bake a cake in 45 min how can we get down 9 months to a science. LOVE IT!Work is picking up speed. We had some incredibly SLOW months for march and most of april but we seem to be picking up speed and we are having fun in the process. Not going to lie, we are freaking out about July since we have TWICE as many moms due that month then we normally deliver. We are panicking about both staffing and room set ups. But I'm sure we will manage, we always seem to.
I'm going to go back and finish my banana bread and get back to studying before Tayla wakes up from a nap.
I'll write more sometime soon.....
