Over a dozen nurses at the same maternity center in Wisconsin are getting ready to welcome their own little bundles of joy!
In a recent press release, HSHS St. Vincent Hospital’s Women and Infants Center in Green Bay announced that 14 nurses on their team are currently expecting.
The medical center shared the news just ahead of Mother’s Day and during National Nurses Week, which runs from May 6 to May 12.
“This is an incredible full-circle moment for many of our nurses, some of which are about to become first-time moms themselves,” said Amy Bardon, director of the center, in the release.
“Each of these women were already baby experts in their own rights,” she continued, adding that for some, their knowledge is “about to further deepen.”
“I am so excited for each of our nurses and the journey they are embarking on, and I hope they have a special Nurses Week and Mother’s Day,” she said.
Bardon also noted that the moms-to-be — who are all registered nurses, as well as health “educators” and “advocates” — have been receiving their prenatal care and checkups from friends and colleagues right there at St. Vincent.
“When our expecting nurses are ready to welcome their little ones into the world, they’ll be cared for by their friends and colleagues here at HSHS St. Vincent Hospital, and they find comfort in that,” she said.
“But even before labor, these women have already built some really unique bonds with their colleagues, and I love that each of them has the chance to go through this special moment with each other.”
