Student Number 20050339 REFLECTION 5 Choosing a model that suits the practitioner best reflective practice can make sense of your reflection and support a positive plan of action for next time (Bulman & Shulz 2008). Using Johns (1994) model of reflection, this reflective account will look at my thoughts and feelings following a new birth visit. DESCRIPTION This visit highlighted to me the issues and the delicacy of maternal mental health and how life events can affect the wellbeing of an individual. A close relative of the family I visited had very recently lost their baby shortly after being born. This had obviously been very difficult time and I was aware that the birth of a new baby within the family may have come with mixed emotions.
This will let the newborn to flourish and helps the mother to get the important care she may need to conquer postpartum depression (Berger, K. S. (2010). The last step for a mother with postpartum depression is to avoid loneliness. The mother needs to not cut off any interaction with their love ones or friends such as their feelings and thoughts.

Providing me with this scholarship money will not only help me get through my schooling now, but it will also give the world, one more nurse who can be an angel to a sick child, like my cousin Vincent. This scholarship will help fund a compassionate, and driven seventeen - year – old girl who imagines becoming the reason that some kids aren’t afraid of the doctor anymore; a girl who envisions smiles after shots and one less sick child. If becoming a pediatric nurse means I can make that impact, then I’ll be glad to do that for the rest of my
Despite warnings from doctors that pregnancy might involve complications that could be life-threatening, Shelby decides - much to M'Lynn's chagrin - to have a child. A year later, as a result of childbearing, her kidneys fail. In an act of love that transforms their maternal bond, M'Lynn donates one of her kidneys to save Shelby's life. The reprieve is short-lived, pun intended, however; Shelby later dies from kidney-related complications. Four loyal friends, who help them through the trials and tribulations that cause conflict, support the two women with love and laughter.
These are questions you may not hear everyday but if you have one of these so-called “donor babies” in your family it may come up a lot. A donor baby is a baby that genetically engineered and is made to help the sick. For example, in the movie My Sister’s Keeper, Anna Fitzgerald is a donor baby. She knows that she was created to help her sister, cancer patient, Kate Fitzgerald. “Help” meaning that ever since Anna was born doctors have been taking parts out of her, like bone marrows and blood cells to give them to her sister who is in
NICU is a neonatal intensive care unit, which cares for babies from birth to possible two years of age. I would find a NICU in a children’s hospital or even possibly a regular hospital. The reason I want to be a NICU nurse is because my little cousin, Joseph, was born prematurely in May of 2004. My parents and I went to visit him and this made me realize how fragile life really is. Since then, God has placed a desire in my heart to become a NICU nurse.
“Women were afraid of two things: to die during childbirth and that something should happen to the baby during childbirth. But these two terrors visited literally every pregnant woman and these are natural” (Moses-Kolko, & Roth, 2004). All the family members should support the pregnant women, take care of her during prenatal and postpartum period, always show compassion, and show appreciation to
I also wonder about the feelings of the surrogate mother’s own children. What they will tell to their children about their origins when they get older? How cruel to impose such a badge on an innocent children. If women can’t have children, adopt. Thousands of beautiful children need good and loving homes every year, they are waiting to belong to
With my efforts, I was able to obtain a grant for my High School education in a private school and that made my mother so happy and proud. When I was 16 they discovered that I have a rupture in the retina of my left eye and she did everything to collect the money to take me to the hospital and had a surgery; I remember seeing her cried, telling the doctors to please fix my eyes, that she wouldn’t me suffer the same way that she did. Even that I don’t see perfectly well, I been able to succeed thanks to the prompt actions that were taken. I never thought of moving out of my country, what for? I had it everything: a house, a job, my family, a fiancée; but different social and family situations take me out of my nest and sent me to fly to a different world.
