    If the files are too big to upload, try posting them to Facebook or photobucket then posting them here. That's what I have to do with my pictures.

    You can also try a place called tinypic. Seems to work pretty good in most places. Just don't forget the URL because you can set a time limit as to how long they are on there.

    Spot and zoe are currently trying to dig through a couple mirrors to get at the cats in them. Spot even tried looking underneath them. I love my goofball furbabies.

    Argh, I suppose physically bashing some sense into someone's head is outside the remit on this forum:

    The scariest part is she mentions the "first time" she might have gotten pregnant.

    And I have to end my horrible night with THAT!! Too many babies having babies. I wish she could have visited me at work last night. She would have changed her mind as soon as she saw the fetal demise of the 17 year old patient I had.

    J, I don't know how you do it,I would be a terrible nurse,id probably just cry my way through a shift.

    Most shifts are happy, but every once in a while we get a baby who has either passed in the womb, or is slowly passing. Last night was the worst of the worst... I sit here drinking a beer to relax because of it.

    After 2 years of this, this is the first time I have experienced this particular situation. I have to get it off my chest, but don't want to be a downer, you know.

    How do you deal with situations like that?

    What do you say?

    ( I'm saying that out loud to myself)

    How you deal personally,I can't imagine.

    It's hard Reddy. To tell a 17 year old that she is going to have a baby, but the baby is not going to live is HARD.

    What do I say? That's hard too. Each delivery is different. This one, for example, the baby may live for a few minutes, to an hour, outside of the womb, but there is no lung tissue to speak of. The baby can't breathe.

    We have to tell them the truth, no sugar coating. I guess that is why I am so straight forward here. Mom was only 20 weeks pregnant, too early for viability. We have to tell them what to expect. No crying; eyes fused; can't really tell the sex; no possible way to save it's life.

    We encourage them to call their religious leader (pastor, priest, etc), if they have one. Keep visitors to a minimum, keep them full of pain meds.

    How do I deal personally? I cry. I cry with my patients. I don't hide it. I have to keep in mind that this was meant to happen, but why we will never know.

    God, it hurts. It hurts to watch these women go through this when I can come home and hug my children. And then I get so pi$$ed off when these little 14 year olds think that they want a baby because the baby will love them unconditionally, or they THINK they are in love. What I wouldn't give to bring them to work with me.

    Its good that you have such empathy for the mothers J,that's what makes you good at your job,that's what they will remember when the dust settles,in their grief when they speak of the worst experience of their lives,the way you helped will help the healing.

    I remember a nurse in ICU when my daughter dying,she was so kind and gentle with me,ill never forget her,she is so much apart of that time.

    The women you helped last night will remember you too,you gave her a gentle hand and you were honest with her in a dark time.
