This pregnancy matter sha. First day I assisted delivery, I didn't know anything so my work was just to hold her hands....I can't forget how she said 'Nurse please don't let me die' And yes....she later died from PPH. No one has the right to tell a woman how her pregnancy felt💔

We're talking about your patient's experience and you're talking professional exam.....you see how we're coming from two different places??? Calm down and think again, this time from the patient's POV.

I'm just trying to say this issue is now beyound data and statistics....this issue has to be individualized. For that woman, with what she went through if survived and said getting pregnant again would be a death sentence for her, I wouldn't be too quick to dismiss her statement.

It should have stopped here. The natural look and this point, are better than the end result. Less is more.

Majority of what is taught in Nursing Schools is outdated, passed down from set to set and expected to be swallowed by the students. Went through solely dependent on textbooks and I don't regret that decision. Like how are people still copying 20page note on BED MAKING in 2026??

Oooooh wow, what a beautiful context,stop joining the bandwagon and think like a health practitioner, nobody is throwing negative experiences of pregnancy under the bus,has that been the only delivery, you assisted? How about you give us all the data?.

Why should anything happen to her? When it isn't apprenticeship work, in working system, why should a CNO be sending a nursing student something totally out of the scope of why they're in the hospital?
CNO sent a nursing student to get her food from outside the hospital but she refused and kindly said 'that's not what I'm here for ma'am😐 Funny enough nothing happened to her after all the fracas....I remember in my time, I was literally used as a slave. Was she disrespectful?

Before God saved me, I could masturbate 12 times in a night (10pm-6am). Then sleep the whole day then rinse and repeat.
Avoid masturbation, No matter how horny you are.
