There is tons of blood in Labour & delivery, but to me it's different because it goes along with bringing new life into this world. Anywhere you will work in nursing your going to have to deal with blood, vomit, feces, death and sickness. If this doesn't sound like something for you, don't become a nurse.
When you are in nursing school, you will have to start from the ground up, and they will chew you up if you can't deal with these kinds of things in school. I knew a girl who had to drop out because she didn't like to touch feet.
Schooling is long and hard for nursing, your working with people's lives. It is possible to become a nurse while you have children, but you need to be commited to the workload that you are going to face.
I wish you luck.

neo-natal nurse
Consider a career as a Wet Nurse. Source(s):
RN for 34 years (Emergency and Cardiac)
There is an array of options for nursing including anesthetics, neo-natal, and geriatrics, just to name a few. I would suggest to do some serious research on the areas of nursing, so that you can narrow your focus in nursing school, if the program offers various electives from which you can choose from (that is, outside of your required courses and electives).
