well i am not going to tell you what you should do cause that is ultimately your decision, but it seems to me like you want a career based on money and that is your motivation. nursing pays well but you really need to have the desire within to be a nurse and nursing school is not easy it takes dedication and a drive to complete the schooling and become the best nurse you can be. i dont see you talking about helping others and wanting to care for others, those are important feelings to have when making a decision to become a nuse. have you thought of that?
I am a nurse and i still dont like cleaning up feces or dealing with incontenent clients, after my schooling i focused on public health and dealt with new moms and babies in the community. So i took a desk job, it payed well. I now live in Africa and i opened up a clinic here to help new moms and babies and im also working on some public health initiative. Nursing can be so rewarding i have finally found where i belong and i love it. You need to find where you belong and nursing may or maynot be for you and that is your decision to make.
But let me finish by saying their is no greater feeling in teh world than helping another fellow human being in my pinion and nursing gives you the chance to do so everyday.

This all depends on what field you go into. I am in Labor and Delivery. I also work in the Newborn Nursery, as well as postpartum. So, in essence, I assist in delivering babies, I take care of the babies once they are born and I take care of the mothers after they have the babies.

If you are in it for the money, you are in it for the wrong reasons. Nursing is a calling. While we like the paycheck, we prefer to take care of people. I, for one, would do it with or without a paycheck.

I have heard that the reason people like that "baby smell",it is actually a pheromone to make you want to care for them and it releases all the good hormones.
You get to smell babies everyday ,how blessed is that
And save lives! You must go home and be a queen! I saved a life today and I am your Mom,your children must be very proud of you!
I bet they are
Greys Anatomy was good tonight,more medicine less romance!
Any fans or boos?
Do tell,I like Nurse Jackie..my fav!
I liked Mercy until that did more loving and less medicine.
I love to see the errors.
Fess up ! Who likes what?
Professional opinions ,C'mon girls (buds) (lets dish
Wow. Without a paycheck? Is that going a little bit overboard? Exaggerating a little?
I'm not exaggerating at all. As a matter of fact I have gone in when certain women were laboring to be their "coach" without getting paid. I even have a new patient as of yesterday that I will be with when she delivers even if I'm off the clock.

My labor coach/ teacher "Lamaze" was my delivery nurse.We all were real happy about that !
I adored her Such a blessing she was!

Aww, will you be my cybermom? LOL
Update...next door neighbor found out she was pregnant last Monday...38 weeks to be exact. Yes, it was truthfully one of those "I never knew I was pregnant." I see her daily, so I never saw the pregnancy changes (she has an inverted uterus and still got her periods). Well, as I clocked out from work yesterday morning after a 14 hour shift, I saw their car pull into the parking lot at work. What did I do? Turned right back around...did not clock in, but was there with her as a coach (no pay included) until her baby boy was born, only to go home, get a few hours of sleep and go back to work last night for another 12 hour shift.
So no supermannnnnn, this is not going overboard, and this is not exaggerating. This is my life and I love it!!
