I'm waiting to hear from two expensive accelerated MSN programs on the East Coast and getting worried reading the very vague info out there on job success if you didn't go the so-called "old-fashioned way." My gut says this is ridiculous, as we all have to start somewhere, but any actual data is hard to come by. I know you're super busy, but your thoughts on this (or direction to a particular post where you discuss this - haven't read all your blog yet) would be AWESOME.<br />Best to you and thanks,<br />TAAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15944817.post-84998727678824244232007-01-12T05:15:00.000-08:002007-01-12T05:15:00.000-08:00I didn't know FNPs provided care for pregnant wome...I didn't know FNPs provided care for pregnant women!

Also, if you do a lot of prenatal care, you might try to get your hands on a Pinard's fetoscope. I hear FHTs better with these and it helps identify the lie as well. It's nice to have the doppler as a back up and also so that the mom can hear the FHTs, too. Love your blog by the way.allamadogohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12609761085144621558noreply@blogger.com
