134: Ruptured Ectopic Pregnancy With Guest Shenell RN
Manage episode 475165701 series 3428871
One minute she was the nurse—then she became the emergency. Today, Shenell RN of the All One Nurse podcast shares her story of a ruptured ectopic pregnancy that sent her into emergency surgery on shift — and the second ectopic pregnancy that followed just a year later.
We talk through the symptoms she felt that day, how methotrexate treatment impacted her recovery, and the range of symptoms that can make it hard to tell what’s really going on. Shenell also opens up about the emotional toll of pregnancy loss, her journey to have her rainbow baby, and how her experience gave her deeper insight into the kind of support patients really need.
This episode is a firsthand account of what compassionate care really looks like—and how nurses can better support patients during reproductive emergencies.
Topics discussed in this episode:
- The importance of self-care for nurses
- How her experience changed her approach to patient care
- First ectopic pregnancy and emergency surgery
- Emotional aftermath and physical recovery
- Methotrexate treatment for her second ectopic pregnancy
- How to support patients through pregnancy loss
- Patient education and communication tips
- When patients need to seek care
- Conceiving after ectopic pregnancy
