I love how I’m watching this and I’m like “Why does this all look so familiar....” and then it hits me, we work at the same hospital 😂
🤫 Hahah that's crazy!
We use Epic too in Singapore!
@@TheRunner100 my dad works for epic lols
🤣🤣🤣
That's awesome!!❤ I'm expecting our last and 11th baby and going to school to get both my doula and midwife licenses ❤🎉
3 things I like about this video:
1 her smile as she talks about what she does. her joy radiates through the screen
2 she's actually staring at the lens and not at the view whatever of the camera
3 the million subscriber goal
almost there!!!
I’m going into nursing and I’ve honestly considered being a labor and delivery nurse. This was really insightful! Thank you
Glad it was helpful! I love what I do and sharing it with people
Same here 🤗
X3
Oh my god your voice is soo calming can’t wait for the next video
Glad you enjoyed! Thanks for watching 🥰
agree!
i’m literally just now entering high school in the fall and i’ve been going between a couple of jobs and this video really inspired me! my mom is a labor and delivery surgical tech so all of her friends are rns, surgeons, and practitioners so i’ve grown up around really powerful inspirational women. this job is really sticking and i cant wait to grow up and find out what i want to be! thanks for the video!!!
I’m literally here for the same reason! I’m going to be a freshman this year and trying to decided what career path I want to pursue
@@emmab6531 it’s so good you are starting early. That’s an amazing thing to do when you enter high school. The earlier the better.
THANK YOU so much for watching. It means a lot! It's so exciting that you have so many powerful women behind you to support you. Good luck!
Labor and delivery nurses are the real SUPER HEROS!!! 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽 my first delivery I was clutching onto the nurse on every contraction when I got my epidural. My second delivery I progressed quickly and wanted an epidural but was already 10 CM. I was shocked and scared and screaming, cussing saying I was going to call the cops 😂😂😂 (Karen alert lmfao!) saying I was going to die. An Jamaican nurse came in and talked to me sternly and helped me catch my breath! They are saviors and I’m forever grateful! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
We totally understand that you’re going through the worst pain of your life and we never take it personally! I’m pretty sure when I had my son I sobbed my baby out. Now I feel horrible because I always feel so bad when my mamas are crying in pain, because I feel so helpless. I probably made my nurse feel awful because I cried for hours when my epidural failed and I had to go natural. It all worked out in the end, but I have a lot of sympathy for moms in pain because of my experience! 💛
i feel like anyone who doesn’t work in the medical field understands the excitement you get from helping someone in need. i’m currently about to start med school in august and cannot wait to feel this way just from talking to the nurses at my family’s doctors office makes me excited
That’s so exciting! Best of luck to you!
I just got into nursing school and have been trying to find “day in the life” videos of different specialities to get an idea of what to expect. I’ve never considered L&D until watching your video, it seems like such a rewarding area to work in.
I’m hoping to document my experience on TH-cam to add to the great videos out there like yours!
I really love what I do. I feel like I make a huge difference every time in at work, which is an amazing feeling!
Chelsey, while it is rewarding I don’t mean to discourage you but its good to be realistic and know that things will not always go perfect and there are many sad and difficult things that can happen in a labor and delivery room, that being said if you go in prepared for that of course it is also just as rewarding.
Yes but it’s quite rare. I’ve been working for a year at a hospital that does around 350 deliveries a month and have yet to have a bad outcome or IUFD. The bad is far and few between and the good makes up for it.
I am fourteen and my goal is to become a labor and delivery nurse. I loved this video and how you gave us as much information as needed in a short video without being in a rush to explain it
I am so proud of being a labor and delivery nurse! You wrapped up an average day beautifully! I think it would be interesting to share a video about the not-so-great days (i.e. code sections and/or bereavement support). Thank you for a showing how amazing our job is!
This is such a great idea. After a particularly hard day, maybe I’ll write down how it went and film a video about it. Thanks for the idea!
Hey do you have to be good at math to be one
I start nursing school in the fall- I’ve been trying to get all of the exposure I can about all the different areas of nursing and this video was very insightful! Thank you!
So glad you liked it! Thanks for watching 🖤
I could never be a nurse but after having two kids the nurses who were with me during delivery were life savers 💕💕💕💕 thank you for all you do
This is such a sweet comment, thank you for watching 🥰
I just graduated from nursing school, am taking the NCLEX soon, and am starting on postpartum in a month!!! I watched your interview video right before my interview when I was freaking out and it helped a ton. I’m so excited to continue to watch your videos while we are both working and when I eventually cross-train to L&D!
This means so much to me! I love that it helped, I love what I do so much and I know you will too. 🥰
i’m finishing up my first semester of nursing school and i think about L&D A LOT!! i can’t wait until it’s time for my OB rotation! maybe i’ll feel differently when i get there but right now when i see myself as a nurse i see myself helping mommas have their babies🥺 thank you for the video
I’m in nursing school and my passion my whole life has been to be in labor and delivery. I have 4 boys my self, so I can relate to all the laboring mamas! :) I can’t wait to help take care of mama and bring a new life to this world!
It’s seriously the best job ever. I wouldn’t trade it for any kinds of nursing! 🥰
I work in EMS and LOVE doing field deliveries, sometimes mom doesn't make it to the hospital on time! Delivered three when I worked as an Er nurse too! Just interviewed and shadowed on a L and D floor, I FINALLY FOUND MY NURSING NICHE, crossing fingers and toes that I get the job!! Thank you for the video! Oh, and hi kitty cat, love tortie cats!
Welp, I got the job, but HATED being a L and D nurse!! I tried post partum as well and meh, it was ok, and then when I had to go to permanent nights, I was like, yea, this isn't for me, I am not a night shift person!! Anywho, I found my "nursing niche" in vascular access, so don't give up if you are struggling to find your nursing specialty!
Thank you for sharing. I'll be an LPN by next July and then work to become a L&D nurse. A team of nurses saved my life after giving birth to my son. If it weren't for them, I would have missed seeing my babies become the beautiful little humans they are today. Forever grateful for nurses like you. Looking forward to more content!
It is the best job ever. I love making every birthday special, even the ones that don’t end up the way were expecting. It’s a huge day and everyone’s life and I don’t take that for granted. I’m glad you had a good team of nurses and you’re still here today! 💛
Watching this because I’m pregnant, and I just wanted to see the day and life of a labor & delivery nurse 😂
I love that! Congrats 🥰
Same!!! Lol 37 weeks!!
Same! 26w 😂
Same! Postpartum tho with my 2nd boy 🥲
I got accepted into the clinicals program at my high school and can’t wait!! They’re allowing us to go a hospital and are giving us departments to “work” in!! I chose labor and delivery since I’m aspiring to become one after I finish school- you’re very inspiring and show that you love your job and I just know I’m gonna love it too!! 🧡
Currently in my second year of nursing school, been deciding whether Labor and delivery or going into my masters for Midwifery is where I want to be!! Great video to see!!
Im in nursing school working as a tech on an understaffed med/surg floor and honestly I kind of hate that I feel like we are constantly being abused or letting patient care flater due to lack of staff. There are many days where I feel i'm going to get burnt out less 6 months into nursing after I graduate. This has inspired me to work even harder in nursing school so I can do labor and delivery and NOT med/surg, rehab, psych, or step down (not saying that those aren't respectable jobs I'm just not strong enough) THANK YOU FOR THIS
Yes I 100% agree! Burn out still happens in L&D but I feel like it's way less honestly.
YESS I'm so happy I found your channel. I have seen a lot of nursing videos and I will say 100% you seem like the chillest, realist nurse by far. So much useful, interesting information. This is my dream job and you are helping my manifestation with these videos. Thanks girl
This is so sweet! Thanks for watching 🥰 You can do it!
I am a nurse as well, and I always struggle to find my own time and space at the end of the day and feel like I have no time left. You have a family, create TH-cam videos and work as a full time nurse as well but still manage to do all these.You’re amazing.
It's not all easy! I have good weeks and weeks where I feel totally overwhelmed. I lean on my partner a lot for support with TH-cam and our son.
I just started my first semester of nursing school this week!! Right now, my heart is telling me L&D is where I need to be💕
It’s such a great field to be in!
Decided I wanted to go into nursing (specifically labor/ delivery) when I was 9. I’m in school now and watching this just made me so excited and motivated to finish in the next couple years
I believe in you! You can do this.
I’m a nursing student, u are my favorite nurs recently ! Thank you for sharing
Have a blessed day !
Wow, thank you! That means so much.
I delivered all four of my children at the same hospital. Had to switch out nurses twice maybe. You need to be a certain kind of special to be a labor and delivery nurse. Bless you 😊
Hey there, thanks for the video. I am an LPN currently and starting RN school this month. I want to be a labor and delivery nurse! That is my goal.
This video is incredibly insightful. Thank you for putting yourself as a nurse on the front line. We greatly appreciate your service, Amy!👏
Hi! Perinatal CNS with over 30 years with moms and babies. I LOVE high risk OB which may seem crazy, I also loved teaching new nurses and taking the “Bradley method” families. There is so much to talk about-I also really enjoyed taking the high risk model and bringing “normal” aspects to it. Altogether, it is a lot of hard work! I’m glad there are new nurses coming up to take it over. Much love!
Thank you so much for this comment! 💛 I love what I do and learning from the best
I had to give a thumbs up. I have gone natural for all 3 of my babies, and I had nurses that were the only reason I was able to do it, considering every single circumstance that was thrown at me. I am so glad to hear you love your job, because I think labor nurses are some of the most amazing strangers you will ever have on your "team." Have a great day, and thank you for everything that you do in l&d ❤❤❤❤❤
I’m so glad you had a positive experience! I feel like your nurse can make or break your labor 🥰
I absolutely agree! Again, thank you for everything you do, and for caring. It's so intimidating, and that extra care in that moment really makes us feel like our nurses are there for us and not at all bothered or grossed out at all... it gave me the ability to go to that primal state to be able to cope with my natural labor. Best experience I have ever had.
Missed being a labor and delivery room nurse here in the Philippines, such a huge opportunity to help mothers to delivery such a cutie babies. It was a bit tough and busy being a OB Gyn nurse but every day is a new day for learning.. ❤️
Aspiring L&D nurse! I have my LPN and working on getting some experience under my belt before moving forward. Like you, I KNEW during my OB clinicals this is what I was BORN to do! My first day in OB clinicals I saw the complete circle of life with a 16 week fetal demise and had a rockstar mom come in straight to a room ready to go and helped coach her along to bring a beautiful healthy boy into the world! I had an AMAZING nurse to work under that day! I had never felt so alive until that day! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
You worded this beautifully. It can be the best day of someone’s wife or the worst, and I’m honored to be a part of it either way. 🤍 You’ll be amazing.
@@AmyBales yes, no matter what is going on, I want to be there for the whole family and advocate their needs. Be there for the good and the bad.
@@mileymiley4042 I passed my boards no problem. NCLEX wasn't a problem.
Thank you for being so realistic 🙏🏻so many new grads go into L&D with no clue how hard it really is
It really is! Thanks for watching
I'm a nursing student currently, worried about going into the field because of burnout. Videos like this give me more hope!
Hi I've worked in clinical modality practice for nutritional medicine for over 6 years now, doing therapeutical techniques for regional & rural community outreach groups (focus), now I've finally moved onto theological aspects of ed/ob/gyn & psych ward patient intake. I now run a team of professional nurses and I've achieved an acumen of clinical nurse specialist scientist, I have a backed research/work degree in clinical nutrition, I can run multiple nurse outpatient centres under my guidance, and I recently got promoted to Dean of Nursing!!! I'm so happy now, ty for showing me your prestigious ob work it's good to see more nurses not in burnout. GL to all nurses and physicians and allied health team.
I'm newly hired labor delivery nurse here in MN so I always checked your videos to get some guide and an idea the daily routine of yours.
ahh, thank you for everything you do! i got admitted when i was 9 cm dilated and it was absolutely chaotic, but i'm so thankful for all the nurses, midwives, staff who helped me out and made it a smooth 30 minute hospital admission before giving birth hahaha
We love fast deliveries! They're fun and super easy (and not a ton of strip charting!). Glad you had a good experience!
I'm starting nursing school soon and I've been thinking about labor and delivery, I really appreciate you making this video and talking about what your days look like!
No problem! It’s an amazing job and I love what I do 🥰
I’ve always had interest into working in the medical field. I decided that an L&D nurse is the type of nurse I want to be. I love watching day in the life of an L&D nurse
Just happened upon this channel... I'm an aspiring Nursing Student torn between doing A&E or L&D, I loved how authentic this video was. Also, you have the perfect podcast speaking voice... ❤️❤️🥰🥰
Ah I love this comment! Thank you 🤍 it means a lot
@@AmyBales you responded.. you made my night.. you're most welcome Amy. Subscribed because I need all the positivity I can get to push through school.
My baby passed away shortly after labour due to medical malpractice.
I really appreciate nurses like you who take their job seriously. Who cares about the mom and baby. Thank you.
Oh my goodness!!! I am so sorry to hear that! 💔😭
I graduate nursing school in 36 days-we’ve only done med surg clinical the entire time. I was dead set on being a M/S nurse because I didn’t think I’d like anything else. Well in last semester, we get 2 days of L&D/NICU clinical. In my 9 hours on L&D, I fell in love and I’m so excited to search for open positions even if it means I’ll do a year of M/S residency first.
I’m so excited for you!!!
You look beautiful as always! Thank you very much for sharing your Day in the Life Experience with me today Amy. 😃
I've been 10 months on a cardio floor and now have an interview with L&D at another hospital!! I'm so excited and nervous! thanks for all of this!
I’m so excited for you! You’re going to do absolutely amazing!
Really enjoyed this video! I had such sweet nurses when I was in labor and after having my baby they inspired me to go back to nursing school! Finished my 1st semester a month ago and even though I passed my classes I’m still looking to improve areas of my studying and organization so I can do even better on tests. This video made me excited and motivated to get into next semester and start clinicals.
So glad you liked it! Good luck 🥰
I don't understand how you are so calm and content? I worked in nursing homes and hospice where I had 25-30 patients. I have been burned out since 2017. (Probably way before then.... )
I really think it’s because I chose the specialty. I have a friend who started MedSurg nursing as a new grad and by five months and she quit because she hated it so much. When she would tell me about her day I would tell her that I would quit too, it sounded horrible. Finding a job in an area where you are appreciated and your staff support you, and you’re interested in what you do every day, and you have safe ratios, it totally prevents burn out. 🤍 I would definitely look for a different job that feels you leaving excited after work.
I recently realized that I want to be a labor and delivery from my OB class. Im in love with the content and hope when I graduate next year I am able to get a L&D position!
You absolutely can do it. It’s the best job ever, it doesn’t even feel like work. You absolutely can do it. Try to get a job as a tech on a labor unit you like, it helps a lot!
Am into nursing school and offering midwifery , am so motivated by you and this keeps me going
Aspiring nurse here! Love this video so much! I love that you love your job so much. I see so many nurses making videos of why they’re leaving nursing so it’s nice to see someone loving their job as a nurse💗
I love my job! I could see why people would be leaving if they start on units they hate. Your unit is everything! Thanks for watching 🥰
Iam a midwife student from germany and it’s so amazing to see how different the same work can be handled in two different countrys !! I immediately subscribed and Iam hoping to see some more content about the best job in the world from your perspective 😊 sending love 💕
Thanks so much for watching! Yes it’s very different here, and our hospital sees very sick patients. Not usually just healthy moms and babies, so we have to do a lot of continuous monitoring. 🤍
HI I"ve been a Nurse for a very long time. Put in an applicaton just for kicks and giggles. Just got a call up for an interview and find myself actually really wating to do it. This would be the final frontier for me. But we will see. Thank you great video.
How did it go? Did you get the job? 😁
Just started second semester of nursing school 💖 I begin maternity clinicals next week nervously because my heart is set on Labor and Delivery and the idea I have in my head. I know it’s super hard and challenging, wish me luck 💜
you should do a video about all the classes and exams and semesters that you had to take and how long was your schooling
I actually did make a video on my schooling, it’s my video “How to Become a Labor and Delivery Nurse” 🥰
Nursing student here considering either L&D or NICU (my son was 10 wks early so I’ve had first hand experience there) thank you for this insight!
So glad I could help! 🖤 And that’s amazing personal experience that will make you a great nurse.
I'm finishing nursing school in December and I came across your "How I got my L/D job as a new grad." Let me tell you I feel super validated by that video, it's June and I was already looking at positions to apply to because you can never be too ready. I'm very hopeful and excited for what's to come in January when I (fingers crossed) become a L/D nurse.
I got hired for my current position in October when I graduated in December. I applied in June I believe. I think you’re right on track! Good luck 🥰
I am a senior in highschool who is about to go to college to get a BSN in general nursing. I hope to be a L&D nurse and am so excited!! Thanks for sharing 🫶🏻
I was recommended this and I can't believe I haven't found you earlier! I am a jr in HS, in the medical field (EMT, through a vocational school) and this is what I want to become. I loved how your videos talked about HIPPA (and respected it), and how you put the keys to all the words you said. I loved every minute of it and became a new sub! Thank you for all the information! Cant wait to see more!!
This made me so happy! Thanks for watching. Is there any kind of content you’d like to watch specifically? I’m always looking for suggestions! 🥰
Wow I’m going to be a nurse in the future and have always wanted to do it . Please make an advice video for seniors in high school (I’ll be one next year) on what to do to get there and what to expect if you haven’t already ! Definitely nervous about it. 🤍🤍 great video
I should have a good video on how to become a nurse and the whole process going live sometimes this week! Hopefully it helps 😊
@@AmyBales thank you omg 🤭
I used to work in L&D. 7p-7a. Very tough to work those hours. Trying to stay awake was difficult even with coffee. I would usually get home around 8:30a and try to unwind from all of the coffee I ingested. Most days, I didn't even reach REM. If I was lucky, some days I would get roughly 3-4 hours of sleep and have to be ready and out of the door by 6:15p to be at the hospital by 6:50p to start my shift that night. It was extremely tough. I eventually switched back to days for obvious reasons. Best of luck!!
It’s awful! I’m like next on the list to switch to days. 🤞🏼
@@AmyBales yes!! you have to do what's best for you. I was so exhausted that I could barely keep my eyes open. Do what is right for you first😉
You have the best job ever. I plan on becoming a labor & delivery nurse 👩🏽⚕️
It’s amazing! 🥰 You absolutely can and should do it!
I have an interview for L+D next week! I just took my last final today and now I’m getting ready for my interview! Woo hoo!! So glad you found your happy place! I have a feeling this is going to be my happy place too.
this video is so informative - I had an OB rotation last semester and I’m so glad to have some more information about the floor!
Glad it was helpful! I love sharing labor and delivery with people and I'm glad you felt like it helped. 😊
It is absolutely crazy to me how I knew I wanted to deliver babies since I was a kid and doing my OB Rotations in nursing really and truly set it all for me
just passed my nclex and i love labor and delivery! this just confirmed it even more. really enjoyed your video! thank you!
I used to work in post Partum and I LOVED it
I’ve had three babies. I love L&D nurses. You all are amazing. 💕
Thank you so much! I'm glad you had positive experiences.
So happy I came across your account! I’m 1 class away from applying to the nursing program and I feel in my heart that OB is for me💕 about to binge watch your videos for the next few days 🤗
You got this! I'm so excited for you!
This was the best quality ditl video I have seen from a nurse. Please make more L&D related videos!!!!!!!!😍
This comment meant so much! 🤍 thank you
Graduating with my BSN in April 2022! Aspiring L&D nurse! Love your video! Definitely subscribing ❤️
Thanks so much for the support! You can do it 🥰
I have my L&D rotation in a couple of weeks and I’m so excited!
Have your preceptor try to get you someone who is going to deliver during the shift, deliveries are the best! 🤍
I failed my NCLEX a few weeks ago and watching videos like this for motivation to keep pushing because man ir sucks.
You absolutely can do it! 🤍 Don’t give up.
I want to go into L&D. Next school year I will be going to college as a dual enrolled person. Wish me luck
I am about to graduate nursing school in December and I just had my first clinical in labor and delivery last week due to Covid-19! I loved it there and really want to work there!
I really love it, I hope that you can find a position to fit you in that area!
Great video. What an exciting job you have. I love that you love your work!!
Amy, I have been following you for like a week now. You seem so genuine and kind person. Whatever patient you come across I’m sure they’re very lucky to have someone like you!!! I’m a new grad nurse I would to be a L&D nurse but I’m really scared!! I feel I’m not ready to be in this department yet!!
This comment is so kind! Thank you for this. It means a lot. I can already tell you would be amazing because of your kind comment right here. Doing things like this, acknowledging people when you like what they’re doing makes you the best kind of person. You’ll excel in whatever you do! 🤍
hello from Australia! I am 5 weeks off finishing year 12 (final year of high school) and have recently been excepted into my dream university where I will studying nursing followed my a postgraduate degree in midwifery (the Australian equivalent of a labor and delivery nurse) this was so awesome to watch and just makes me more excited for my future in labor and delivery!!! would love to see a video on your experience in nursing school and some tips to optimise your education and learning xxx
I want to be a midwife but was thinking of becoming a labor and delivery nurse while in school for midwife. Like finally a youtuber who actually explain and tell you everything.
This comment means so much to me! I’ve also thought about being a midwife, there’s so many factors to consider. I love taking care of critically ill patients in labor and I would lose that as a midwife, but everyone knows what would work best for them!
Thanks for sharing. I'm starting L&D this Monday as a new grad. I am so excited as this is my dream job. ❤
Good luck!! I hope you love it. Excited for you and I hope you get to experience lots of "birthday parties"!
@@AmyBales Thank you! I think I will. I went into nursing to work in L&D. I got a preceptorship in the exact unit I was hired at during nursing school. So I was able to check the unit out and see if it would be a good fit. 😊
I’m due in a few weeks and I’m grateful for this video. I always wonder what the nurses point of view was like. I’m a vlogger so I typically know what the mom side is like.. I hit the like❤️
new subscriber here! i’m graduating nursing school this december and i want to be an l&d nurse! it’s been a dream of mine for soooo long now and watching videos like yours really validate my feelings about OB in general 💗
This was recommended to me and perfect timing I start my L&D residency program July 12th & IM PREGNANT (I’m a first time mom) definitely subscribing so I can get more of this content
you have the most calming voice!
Aspiring L&D nurse here!! I’m currently in nursing school and graduate this fall! Thank you for sharing your day:)
Good luck! You’ve got this. 💕
I graduate in May and came looking for mental support because I have an L&D interview next week and I am nervous and excited:) Can't wait to watch more videos!
Your voice is SO soothing!
Ahh thank you!
It’s me! I want to be in labor and delivery! This made me smile so much.
I’m so glad! You can do this!
I am a nursing student who aspires to be an L&D nurse!! Thank you for making these videos! They are SUPER helpful! 😁❤
I'm so glad! Thanks!
I'm SO glad that I found your channel. I'm deciding on where I want to do preceptorship and my hearts been leaning towards maternity, wether that's postpartum, L&D etc! Thanks for sharing your experiences, it's definitely giving me some direction :)
I’m so glad that you liked this! These comments mean so much. 😊🤍
In nursing school and thinking this is what I want to do! This was so encouraging and is making me really excited for when I get to clinical!!
I'm so glad! I hope it goes well.
Your eyes are mesmerizing and your is so soothing l know that you are great at your job u inspire me
I’m so glad I found your video! I love watching DITL of nurses! I’m currently taking pre-reqs for an absn program and videos like these just motivate me so much. Currently taking micro 😅 lol
Ugh I remember micro! You absolutely can get through it. 💛
I love this. It's my final year in undergrad and I know I want to be a labor and delivery nurse. This really made me feel better, as I've been questioning if over been on the right path allot lately❤️
Granddaughter currently works 7 to 7 for another couple months. Then will work nights in L&D. Nursing school during COVID meant very few clinicals so learning on the job. Her preceptor is very understanding.
That’s a lot of what I had to do, my last year of nursing school was online. It’s tough! Best of luck to her.

Hello! I will be starting my prerequisites in the fall, and after having kids and also watching greys anatomy LOL I made up my mind I want to be a L&D RN, thank you for showing us a day in your life. Im very excited and can’t wait for what the future holds for me! 😊
I’m so glad you enjoyed! Best of luck 🥰
I'm a newer Labor and Delivery nurse, but I'm happy I picked this specialty of nursing. Can be very stressful but definitely worth it! Learning so much. Also your hospital looks amazing👏👏
Thank you! Yes it truly is the best.
I am an aspiring L&D Nurse and I'm so excited. I have a year left of GE before applying! Thanks for this informal video!
So glad it was helpful!
I’ve found that the most happiest place on earth is the labor and delivery department! 🤍🤍🤍
Yes it’s really the best! There’s good days and bad days but the good outweighs the bad 💛
I’m only in 9th grade however I am looking into becoming a Labor and Delivery Nurse so this was very insightful to watch. Thank you for sharing!!!
It’s really the best job. I highly recommend getting a job as a tech on a labor and delivery unit while you’re in nursing school so that you can understand the basics of how the unit works by the time you graduate. Thanks for watching! 🥰
I’m about to enter nursing school and I’m interested in possibly becoming a labor and delivery nurse. Getting more excited about the opportunities I can do in nursing
The labor and delivery nurse i had during my labor of my second born was AMAZING. She really inspired me to pursue nursing. Im just a little scared i won’t have as much time at home with my kids once i start my career :(
Thanks for sharing your experience. I just got a job offer in L&D which has been my dream job since I started nursing school.
