what is it called when there a nurse that help with baby delivery
Labor and delivery nurses are very similar to perinatal nurses, only they just assist during labor verses seeing the woman during the entire pregnancy like perinatal nurses do. During a womanâs labor, the labor and delivery nurse monitors the fetal heart rate in order to determine if the baby is handling labor well. The nurse also monitors the womanâs blood pressure, temperature, strength and timing of contractions, and cervical dilation.
