We have a stalker on the Labor & Delivery floor…….

So, I’m sitting here at Baptist Hospital waiting for someone to get out of surgery.  (And before anyone asks, everything is fine.  A family member is having an outpatient procedure.)  As I have been walking around to get coffee or just stretch my legs, I can’t help but get really excited.  I look around and see all these people in scrubs, taking blood, wheeling patients around and I get so excited thinking about when I get be one of those people.  I keep going by the 3rd floor, which at Baptist is Labor and Delivery.  I keep poking my head around corners to watch the nurses do their job.  I’m sure some of them think I may be a little creepy, but that’s ok.  I just can’t help it…..I can’t keep myself from being curious and trying to absorb everything I can about this environment.  As I walked away from the L&D floor, I almost started to tear up.  I can’t describe the intense desire I have to working as a L&D nurse….it’s almost overwhelming.  And I can’t wait until I am in a hospital everyday, helping women delivery healthy babies.  Sometimes I feel like such a dork for how excited I get when I get to see a baby born.  I just can’t help it……
