Guidance

• For the majority of my research, I have used a book called, "Labor and Delivery Nursing" by Michelle L. Murray and Gayle M. Huelsmann. This book has really helped me understand the different roles and positions a Labor and Delivery Nurse must be and take. Not only has this book provided me with insight, but with an education on different topics such as Functional, Mechanical, and Emotional Dystocia I would have never come across on my own. I don't just use this book for research, but also for my own personal use and enjoyment. I know that may sound a bit funny for some people, but being as passionate as I am on Labor and Delivery Nursing, it's exciting and intriguing.
