I hope everyone enjoys my blog! I will try to update it as much as I can, and I hope to be an encouragement to everyone whether they are just starting nursing school or only have a few months left. Hope you enjoy my ramblings/ experiences as a nursing student!! As for me I have approximately 22 weeks left of nursing school left!!! As hard as that is for me to comprehend I have all kinds of emotions going through me. I'm extremely excited but a little nervous, all the more while anxious, and happy! ( More on that later)
Mother/ Baby
This has been BY FAR my favorite class in nursing school so far!!! I loved every minute of the class, and especially clinicals! The experiences were wonderful! It was just SO amazing to take care of new families, and see the wonderful miracle of life. It boggles my mind that these little babies thrived, and grew inside their mothers for 9 whole months. All the while, preparing to enter this world. It was such a joy to see happy new moms, precious babies, and joyful dads! I absolutely loved the teaching aspect of mother/baby. It was just a wonderful experience ... every bit of it! This is the first quarter where I actually looked forward to getting up at a ridiculous hour to go to clinical!! I'm so sad that my mother/baby rotation is coming to an end and next week I will move on to Neuro.
Hopefully someday I will be back where I'm supposed to be in Mother/baby!!!
22
Even though, I still have 2 and a half quarters left of nursing school, that is nothing compared to the five and a half I've already endured. Struggling with late nights,early mornings, working while trying to go to school, 45 page care plans, intense check offs, and extremely bad test anxiety.... Jesus has been with me all through my doubts and struggles. Even when I thought I could do it all by myself, when I thought I only should rely on myself; he was there with me all the way!
Now I can finally say the light at the end of the tunnel is finally becoming visible! Actually now that I look back, when I was a baby nursing student, just learning the fundamentals I never thought I would make it. I didn't think I would see even a glimpse of the light. I doubted too much , and wasn't sure if I was cut out for this,not that it wasn't what I wanted to do (because nursing is definitely what I want to do) But rather the stress of everything nursing school, I didn't think I could handle. But I'm SO incredibly happy I did, because now I can finally say it was worth it!
Although, I still have 22 weeks left to go, I couldn't have gotten this far without God, my wonderful family and amazing encouraging friends. And I couldn't forget all of my wonderful classmates and teachers. I have been truly blessed each quarter with great fellow future nurses and don't know what I would have done without them!
To all you future nurses out there, people thinking about nursing, or entering nursing school: **You CAN do it!
***The light at the end of the tunnel , will come!!
****Study whenever you can! And DON'T change your answers on tests! (Unless you absolutely know you clicked the wrong one!)
Taking it one care plan at a time,
Sara
