[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There's no debate that monitoring improves outcomes -- the debate is intermittent vs continuous. There's no reason for a woman to be stuck in bed with continuous monitoring when intermittent has shown to be just as effective.[/quote] agree. With my second, nurse was insisting that i get into the bed and be on monitor 24/7...i said i'd happily be on monitor 15 min out of every hour, but would not lie in the bed indefinitely, as this is counterproductive for labor (and also, contraxns were much more painful lying down). She was so nasty about it that we had to call my OB in to tell the nurse that it was okay. Then the nurse was angry with me for the remainder of her shift. [/quote] You have the right to fire your nurse. (This is coming from a nurse). Legally, we can't just stop being your nurse w/o reporting off to someone else, but you absolutely have the right to fire your nurse at any time. [/quote]
