Book Description
The decision to breastfeed is determined by a mother's personality, her level of self-esteem, her education about the potential problems of the initiation period in breastfeeding, her need or desire to be able to leave her baby in the care of others for long periods of time, and the attitude of her spouse. However, with education and support from others, particularly other mothers who know the situation first-hand, almost all of these factors can be positively addressed.

I Wasn't Strong Like This When I Started Out: True Stories of Becoming a Nurse

Author: Lee Gutkind
Publisher: Underland Press
ISBN: 193716313X
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 256

Book Description
This collection of true narratives reflects the dynamism and diversity of nurses, who provide the first vital line of patient care. Here, nurses remember their first "sticks," first births, and first deaths, and reflect on what gets them though long, demanding shifts, and keeps them in the profession. The stories reveal many voices from nurses at different stages of their careers: One nurse-in-training longs to be trusted with more "important" procedures, while another questions her ability to care for nursing home residents. An efficient young emergency room nurse finds his life and career irrevocably changed by a car accident. A nurse practitioner wonders whether she has violated professional boundaries in her care for a homeless man with AIDS, and a home care case manager is the sole attendee at a funeral for one of her patients. What connects these stories is the passion and strength of the writers, who struggle against burnout and bureaucracy to serve their patients with skill, empathy, and strength.
