    That deep breath at 10:33 .. Full of desperate, anxiety and exhaustion.. of course we chose this job, but not these circumstances.. i felt that breath so much!!!

    I recently found your channel and I’ve been binge watching all your vids! I’d like to be a NICU nurse so your channel has it all for me - nursing, aesthetics, lifestyle… love it!!

    Fellow nurse here (mother baby/transition NICU nurse)… I totally appreciate your authentic talk about nursing and the stresses/difficulties of being a nurse. It’s an amazing job… I love my job so much.. but it can obviously be so exhausting mentally, emotionally and physically. And I think non health care workers have really seen that and been more supportive since the whole pandemic. So THANK YOU for being honest and real ☺️☺️

    South Texas NICU nurse … our max feeder growers is 3 per nurse !! I can’t imagine feeding 6 then all the other crazy NICU things that happen !!

    I’m a NICU Nurse at a level two and our max is 4 babies even if they are grower feeders. I could not even fathom feeding 6 with bottles AND charting. There’s no way so you are right, I would say that is not normal.

    Would you be able to do a video on how you got your job in the NICU? I am interested but I don't feel like I have a good enough reason to get a job there (I don't have any experience with babies or a personal connection to NICU). Thanks!

    I am in nursing school right now and have seen ENDLESS comments and videos from nurses saying that nursing is not worth it and that nursing students should quit immediately. Do you agree? I am so terrified.

    • @LeightonSanders
      @LeightonSanders  2 года назад

      Hi! I would say just really dig deep and ask yourself what your passions are other than just “helping people in need.” Try different things and learn what lights you up! Nursing can be rewarding but it always can be draining. I talk a little bit about this in my video that will be up soon💖
