I PASSED THE NCLEX. I’m officially an RN 🙌🙌

[icNEWbie, RN @ICNEWBIE]

@PlantMamaRN Noise cancelling headphones or ear plugs really help take the edge off. I’m sorry. Is she colicky?

[icNEWbie, RN @ICNEWBIE]

@PlantMamaRN We went through this - husband and I took 2 hrs shifts sitting up with her because she would wake the second she hit the bassinet. It lasted weeks 😩😩

[icNEWbie, RN @ICNEWBIE]

@PlantMamaRN I hear you, I was also exclusively pumping in the beginning because of her NICU stay. You’re doing the right thing! slowly weaning is the best way. You’ll regulate sooner than you think! 🤍

[icNEWbie, RN @ICNEWBIE]

@PlantMamaRN Def be careful with pumping on top of feeding! It’s nice to have a freezer stash but it will for sure cause oversupply leading to more engorgement and potentially mastitis down the road! Your supply should regulate soon and then your won’t feel full all the time 🤍

@PlantMamaRN Fr. We would get her all cleaned up and do up the new diaper and she would IMMEDIATELY poop in it. And just kept doing that over and over

[icNEWbie, RN @ICNEWBIE]

@PlantMamaRN I found in the newborn stage it was best to put the new diaper under them before opening the old one. There was a period of time where she was go through 5 diapers per change 🫠🫠

[icNEWbie, RN @ICNEWBIE]

15 mins into sleep training and I already hate it so much

[icNEWbie, RN @ICNEWBIE]

@PlantMamaRN Just wait until you guys wake up panicked that the baby is in the bed or you think you’re still rocking her lool for me, I had so much anxiety about her falling on the floor? I would always wake up thinking I dropped her on the floor idk

[icNEWbie, RN @ICNEWBIE]

@PlantMamaRN UGH I’m so happy for you. Having a baby girl is just the best. I’m glad you’re both ok and healthy. Enjoy every second❤️❤️❤️❤️

[icNEWbie, RN @ICNEWBIE]

@icu_cna It’s SOOO hard. You don’t get it until you get it… and I’m sorry you get it. I remember the years every drive home. I remember how hard it is dragging yourself in every day just to see your baby. You can do this❤️

[icNEWbie, RN @ICNEWBIE]

Husbands on a work trip for an entire week so of course my baby decides to go from sleeping 7-9hr stretches to one small stretch and then up all night 🫠

[icNEWbie, RN @ICNEWBIE]

@icu_cna Hey I know we don’t know each other but my girl came 7.5weeks early so if you ever need to chat with another premie mom who gets it my DMs are open. Praying for you both❤️❤️

[icNEWbie, RN @ICNEWBIE]

@nursesam2019 So so hard I’m sorry. Prayers to you guys

[icNEWbie, RN @ICNEWBIE]

Literally the sickest I’ve been in a long time. So hard with a newborn omg 😩

[icNEWbie, RN @ICNEWBIE]

@nursesam2019 Ugh I’m dread this and I’m just in complete denial that its ever going to happen because she’s finally only waking once at night

[icNEWbie, RN @ICNEWBIE]

@PlantMamaRN Screw your drs receptionist. Call L&D at your hospital and get checked for peace of mind

[icNEWbie, RN @ICNEWBIE]

@Cardiac_Cutie My plan was to go off at 37 weeks but my 32 week PPROM had a different idea lol

[icNEWbie, RN @ICNEWBIE]

Me postpartum: PPROM, postpartum preeclampsia, breech baby, emergency c section, NICU baby, pancreatitis and cholecystectomy.
Also me: I wanna be pregnant again. 😵‍💫

[icNEWbie, RN @ICNEWBIE]

Husbands job is to set up bed for baby. Bed wasn’t ready when baby was ZONKED and then baby woke up. Do I file for divorce on our anniversary??

[icNEWbie, RN @ICNEWBIE]

@PlantMamaRN Dude I hated being in the car while pregnant, especially the later I got into it. If anything happened to my baby I wouldn’t have forgiven myself and had so many intrusive thoughts about it 😩
