Hi! I loved this video! I’m 15 (10th grade) and I want to be a L&D nurse so bad!!! This video really helped me to understand the types of nursing and what I want to be! I want to go into college right after I graduate. So I’m trying to figure out things now so I can have it all planned out. I really enjoyed your videos they’ve really helped me. I’m going to continue watching more of your videos!
I'm happy my videos have helped you!! And that you're planning out everything so early, it's wonderful to be prepared 😊
I’m also 15 in 10th grade I wanna be a NICU nurse. This video was super helpful for me aswell
@@janaf5184 that would be an awesome job! My grandma did that for several years.
Same!! But im 9th grade and have wanted to be a post-partum nurse or L & D
Im definitely in between postpartum and NICU nurse and i even volunteered in NICU/ICU for a few years at hospital where i live which will hopefully be to my advantage when trying to get in since thats all the experience i have
got in this area.
The worm that I like from all of the ones that you mention is the postpartum care one to take care of the mom and baby that’s what I always wanted to do but I just don’t know where to start looking
L&D nurses are absolutely the best, I LOVED all the nurses who took amazing care of me while I was being induced and in labor!
yayyy im so happy you had a great experience 💕
This video was extremely helpful, you simply broke down each specialty and made it easy to distinguish!
I'm happy this helped you doll ❤️
I needed this video!! And thank you again!! I danced around my kitchen hearing you say I won 😂!!
Sooo happy for you! You deserve it!❤️
This video helps so much, I’m currently in a program to get my associates in nursing when I graduate hs/plan on getting my bsn (possibly msn) and I’m trying to figure out whether I want to be a pediatric nurse practitioner or a postpartum nurse. Thank you for making a video that explains everything so simply.
you can always be a postpartum nurse first and then do pediatric nurse practitioner after 😊 glad this helped!
heey girl, loved the video!!! I am transferring to L&D in the next few weeks so I am so excited
it will be amazing!!
This video was quite beneficial, Romi! Thanks for the compassion and knowledge that you've shared. Keep sharing such useful information.👍
thanks so much ❤️
Awesome video! I noticed we work at the same hospital. I'm currently an LVN bridging over to my RN. I'll be done next May and can't wait to apply to the residency program. So glad I stumbled on your channel!
So awesome!! Let me know anytime if I can help in any way 😊
@@Romi_joy Thank you! Any recommendations on resources for L&D, postpartum and antepartum nursing? I'm leaning heavily toward this specialty and want to be as prepared as I can.
@@catsetpapier definitely join AWHONN!!!
This is so helpful 💛 Loved it!
Yay!! ❤️
This is a great video
I’m a registered midwife and registered nurse from Australia. It’s so interesting listening to what happens in America with pregnancy and birth. We don’t have registered nurses working in midwifery care, what we call maternity ward includes antenatal, TOPs, induction mummas and postnatal mummas all in the one place and then we have birth suite or birth centre (completely low risk without doctors attached to the hospital but not within birth suite) which registered midwives will rotate through. Also caseload midwifery and private midwives is also very common in Australia. Registered Midwives help birth all our mothers in the public system unless assisted birth is needed in which an obstetrician will deliver. It’s interesting doctors don’t enter our birth suites unless something is wrong. however, in Australia’s private hospitals women have private obstetricians and have a similar set up to America where the registered midwife performs the entire labour and crowning and doctor delivers the baby.
Does America have registered midwives?
So interesting! I've had a few comments from midwives of Europe who are similar to you, in where there are no RN's working in midwifery. Yes! There are registered midwives in America that do exactly what you describe. To become one here we have to get a master's degree in midwifery and have 2-3 years of experience in OB/labor and delivery. So cool to hear practice in other countries!
This was extremely helpful, thank you sooooo much!!! Just subscribed!
Thank you for the sub and glad this helped 😊
Amazing video!! I love your videos!

Thank you for this video. It really explained everything.
I’m happy this helped 💕🥰
Thank you I needed this 🙏🏼🙏🏼
I'm glad it helped!! ❤️
Thank you for this video it’s been very helpful !!!♥️
yayyyy I'm happy it helped xoxo
Great Video Romi !!!!!
Thank you for watching!😁
Hello! I’m a postpartum nurse and I was here to see what other hospitals do. Our postpartum sounds like we include your high risk postpartum patients and we take 4 couplets on a daily basis. Yes this 4 couplet assignment includes mag and blood sugar babies. Does your hospital have issues with reaching budget and do you guys typically get to keep that type of staffing?
i think i’m convinced that i want to be a labor and delivery nurse! thank you.
You’re so welcome good luck you got this!!
Thank you so much it helped me so much !
I'm so glad!! 😊
Thanks for clearing that up I want to go for postpartum

This video really interested me in becoming a nursery nurse. I’ve been looking for other TH-cam videos but haven’t been successful. I’m a senior in high school and wanna see people’s view of this career/ day in their life. Do you know any videos that could be helpful? Such as what classes I need to take and what to expect in becoming a nursery nurse ect.
Hi there!! This video I made shows you all the prerequisites you will need to take! Then go to nursing school and after you graduate, you apply to become a nursery nurse :) th-cam.com/video/PLRCdTPpDzc/w-d-xo.html
Thank you for explaining! Now I would know what I want to be when I grow up🤣.. a postpartum nurse
You got this!
Thanks so much💕
you are welcome xx
Hello Romi, loved this video :) I love babies so much!!! One thing you didn't talk about was Midwifery, what about that? I know there are some that work with hospitals, am very curious.
Hi there!! So midwifery is an advanced degree (pretty much a master's in nursing) where you are able to provide total care to a woman during antepartum and postpartum stages, and can also deliver the baby vaginally. Some hospitals have full privileges for midwives, where others have restrictions (where they can only admit and do cervical checks, history and physicals), it just depends on the hospital!
I’m so lost in which one I want to do 😭 I don’t want to do OB/GYN but I love love love working with babies, I would prefer to work with the babies over the mamas just because I love babies so much. I’m interested in postpartum, NICU, and nursery! Any recommendations for the brief description I gave? And would I be able to fluidly transfer to any type of nursing if one doesn’t turn out to what I want it to be? Also are there differences in pay? Those are my 3 questions! Also do you recommend and accelerated BSN program?
So interesting! I'm an adult nurse in the UK and always wondered what L&D nurse was! It sounds like what I always understood midwives do, so don't you have midwives in your country (guessing it's the States)? Thanks for this video!
I've had a few people from the UK tell me this and yes! We are similar to your midwives in the UK. L&D nurses/all the nurses I described in this video work with an associates or bachelors, but midwives in the US are master level degrees and consider themselves as providers and are able to catch babies/care for women in pregnancy with no doctor present. Super interesting to see the differences between US and UK!
Do you know the steps and schooling and things to do in college nursing major like classes to take ? I want to be a post pardum nurse. But I CANT find ANY videos talking about classes to take in nursing major grades? To specialize in something ? Or what to do after college. Do you go to a hospital and ask to be come a post pardum nurse. How to apply as a post pardum nurse at a hospital. What to do in highschool, and classes to take.
Watch this video it will help a lot on the route to take after high school! th-cam.com/video/PLRCdTPpDzc/w-d-xo.html
After you finish nursing school, you apply to postpartum position online just like any regular job. In high school you do a normal curriculum no extra classes necessary.
I'm thinking of doing PA instead of nursing. do you also have PAs in the obgyn unit and the labor and delivery unit?
not that I've seen. PAs in the women's health department are usually found in the clinic, but there may be some in the hospitals at certain areas!
I think my mom had a cordprolapse with me, she said the umbilical cord broke and she felt her stomach was getting smaller. I believe she had a vagina birth though, would that be the same thing? A cordprolapse bring umbilical just breaking?
That sounds like an umbilical cord rupture where it breaks, a prolapse is when the cord comes out of the vagina first instead of the head, causing the baby’s head to put pressure on it and the heart rate goes down. It usually results in an emergency c-section
In nursing school, did they teach you how to be every nurse like Labor and delivery and nursery nurse or did you only did one course. Because i dont know which nurse to be yet, if i want to be a labor and delivery or nursery nurse
Yes you rotate through every specialty!
Hi! I moved away from home to work on L&D for the past 3 months and thought it was my dream job but feel so anxious everyday and have a hard time with the deliveries and c/s’s. I feel like I may like postpartum better (it’s less stressful since my hospital’s L&D unit is a busy high risk floor). However I worry I will have a hard time getting hired into an LDRP unit when I move back home in the future. Do you have any advice? Is 3 months experience on L&D (basically orientation) enough to set me apart in interviews in the future?
I do think some, even 3 months, experience is enough to set you apart from someone who has no L&D experience when applying for a job. However, I do know that some units are specific on how much experience is required during the hiring process (6 months, 1-2 yrs, etc). I would say apply to them anyways no matter what the specifics are. If they ask you why only 3 months, you can say you wanted to be closer to home and use that reasoning.
@@Romi_joy thank you so much for responding! Do you think having those 3 months L&D plus 7+ months PP will help me as well? Also, how do you suggest I go about asking my manager to switch to PP?
@@jennasmart4809 of course!! And I definitely think the 7+ months postpartum experience will make you a great candidate for LDRP units!! Honestly just schedule a meeting face to face and tell them exactly how you’re feeling. Overwhelmed and stressed and that you would like to try out switching to postpartum as you think it will be a better fit for you. Unless you’re under a contract with specifically L&D it shouldn’t be a problem and hopefully your manager is nice and understanding about it.
Just wanted to tell you that you are so pretty 😁
Thank you! You are too!😊
Are the L&D Nurses also the ones who prepare the discharge papers if not what are they called?
All nurses on every unit know how to discharge and prepare discharge paperwork for their patients!
Is neonatal nurse (not nicu) the same thing as nursery/ newborn nurse?
ehhh I'd say if someone introduced themselves as a neonatal nurse I would automatically think NICU, but nursery/newborn usually aren't called a neonatal nurse, but technically could be since you're working with neonates. But every place is different and they could definitely be using that lingo!!
Ever since I had my babygirl I been thinking about becoming a nurse for womens health. She was born dec 2020
you can do it! 😊
Trying to figure out if I want to be a nursery , nicu ,l&d
hopefully this video helped in your decision ❤️
Nursery or nicu🤔
Good choices
Do abortions get done in the antepartum units?
Nope! Usually it’s done in a clinic

Romi Joy, Hi again I was wondering what would be the difference between an Ob/gyn Nurse vs. Certified RN Midwife?
