Hi aimee!


When I actually started nursing school, I didn't know what area to choose from. But when we had our clinical rotations in various areas I was able to determine which specialty or area I'm most inclined to, which is becoming an O.R. nurse. Between NICN and nurse mid-wife, you don't have to make a decision now. You can do that after you are able to have a first hand experience in NICU and OB ward. So, you'll be able too learn the area you're most compassionate about. But if you're leading toward OB/GYN, I suggest you weigh circumstances. Which area would you be more happier? What could be more fulfilling for you? You can ask yourself several questions and hopefully get to an answer.


Good luck with your schooling! I wish you all the best!
