what dose it mean to have a tame nile monitor?

Q. i have a baby ornate nile monitor he dosent bite when i grave him but he dose try to run away from my hands .once he figures our that he cannot escape my hands he calms down

but ones i put him on the floor he try to run

oh yea also when i put my hand in the tank he freeks out and runs to his hide spot

so dose this sound like a tame nile monitor if not why?

are their any tips for taming them?

A. As I and several others have told you repeatedly - there is no such thing as a tame Nile Monitor.

You're trying to make him tame by putting him through something that is obvious uncomfortable and stressful for him - this is going to lead to a large, aggressive lizard that absolutely HATES everything about you.

You need to stop trying to make him tame and settle for how he is, compared to others he is pretty good but that will change quickly if you persist.

A human-Nile Monitor relationship is one where the human feeds, cleans up after, and gives up an entire room to house the lizard, who in return at best tolerates the human and (usually) does not attack them.

Your persistence in trying to 'tame' this lizard, and your continued ignoring of our answers tell me you are not nearly responsible or mature enough to handle a lizard of this magnitude. I think you should try and find a new home for this little one before it gets any larger and sends you to the hospital.


What is the difference between going to college for Pre-Med or Nursing ?
Q. I want to go work with babies, ONLY babies. I know I have to go through the steps to get there. I'm really looking into working in the new born facility in the hospital. so can somebody tell me what really would be good to get there... people have tired to help but i need a clear answer not no half way answer please.
And what degree should i go for ? Associate's, Bachelor's etc.

A. Doctors typically have less hands-on care with newborn babies, they usually deliver the baby, do the first newborn assessment and any special procedures (circumcision for example) the newborn may need. Nurses on the other hand work extensively with the babies. Personally, I think if all you really want to do is work with newborn babies, become a nurse!

With nursing, there are so many different opportunities to work with babies (OB nurse: fetal monitoring and assisting with delivery; maternity: ongoing care for baby and mother while in the hospital; NICU: newborns needing specialized care; newborn code team: resuscitate babies who aren't doing so great; midwife: masters trained nurses who deliver babies; any sort of newborn clinic; pediatrics, although there are older children as well; and probably much more!)

As you can see, there are many options. Don't think you can just graduate and move right along to your dream job though. Usually, one would work as a maternity nurse for 1-2 years before being trained as an OB nurse or another specialized baby nurse previously listed (every hospital is different though!)

You have two options for your education like you mentioned, associates or bachelors (BSN). More and more hospitals are beginning to require (or at least prefer) bachelor prepared nurses. However, don't think you have to get your bachelor's right off the bat! You can complete a two year (plus pre-requisites) nursing degree at an associate program and then transfer to a "RN to BSN program" once you are done. These BSN programs can last between 1 and 2 years depending on how many credits you take and there are plenty of online schools for that. This route is so much cheaper than doing all four years at a University. It may take longer but will save you thousands (if not tens of thousands) of dollars (I personally saved $77,000 by going this route). As far as bachelor nurses making more, maybe only $0.50-$2 per hour more! And as far as less opportunities for associate nurses, not true (unless the hospital requires a bachelors.) You should research the hospital your interested in to find out if they require a BSN either right now or sometime in the future. Even if they did, you could always go the RN to BSN route.

Associate degree nurses usually have more clinical hours while in school because the focus is less on theory and more about hands-on skills. In fact, an instructor of mine coined her BSN education "Bull Sh*t Nursing." Also, one of the hospitals in my area actually prefers students from my associate degree program compared with the local BSN prepared students (who paid well over $80,000 for their education) simply because of the huge difference in clinical exposure!

Remember, this is simply my experience so please don't assume it's the same for everyone across the board!

Hope this helped & good luck!


What Are The Health Risks For Having Quintuplets?
Q. What are the most common health risks from having quintuplets (it means pregnant with 5 babies if you didn't know) done through Vitro Fertilization? Is there a chance that one of the babies will die or is there a chance that I might die? Would the babies be born premature? What are premature babies like when they are older? I mean what health problems do they usually have?

A. "French fertility experts have carried out an analysis of nearly
25,000 pregnancies that has clearly demonstrated that babies who are
part of a multiple pregnancy face major risks to their life and
health."

"They studied 24,989 pregnancies resulting in 32,389 babies born using
reproductive technologies in France between 1986 and 1998. Main health
markers -- gestational age, weight and mortality - were compared for
single babies (18,235), twins (11,905) and triplets (1,772)."

"Lead investigator Professor Emile Papiernik from H pital Port Royal
in Paris, said that prematurity (under 37 weeks gestation) was
strongly related to multiple pregnancy, with nearly 87% of triplets
and over 42% of twins being premature compared with just over 8% of
single babies. More than 5% of babies were born before 33 weeks of
pregnancy with over 28% of these very premature babies being triplets,
nearly 8% being twins and less than 2% being singletons."

"Over 57% of the babies who were small for their gestational age were
triplets, nearly 43% were twins and just over 17% were singletons."

"Deaths in the period around birth were five times as frequent for
triplets as for single babies (a rate of nearly 40 per 1,000 compared
with under 8 per 1,000 for single babies)"

"Professor Papiernik concluded: "Multiple pregnancy is a very
important risk factor for the babies' health, particularly in assisted
reproduction where it represents over 40% of the newborns but 70% to
80% of the pathologies."

TRIPLETS BORN TO OLDER MOTHERS MAY FACE LESS RISK
==================================================

From "Multiples Born to Older Moms Fare Same as or Better than Those
Born to Younger Moms." National Institute of Health. (Realeased
Friday, September 10, 2002)
http://www.nih.gov/news/pr/sep2002/nichd-10.htm

Findings in Brief:
------------------
"In contrast to the pattern seen with singleton births, twins born to
older mothers do not appear to have a greater risk of birth
complications than do twins born to younger mothers, according to a
recent study by researchers at the National Institute of Child Health
and Human Development (NICHD) and the University of Kansas.

** The study also found that triplets born to older mothers actually
fare better than triplets born to younger mothers."

Implications:
-------------
"Twin and triplet pregnancies are riskier than singleton pregnancies
at any age. ** However, the greater risks faced by infants born to
older mothers may be offset in twin and triplet pregnancies by the
fact that many older mothers pregnant with more than one baby conceive
through the use of assisted reproductive technology (ART).

"Multiples conceived through the use of ART are less likely than those
conceived naturally to be identical. This is important because
non-identical multiples have a smaller risk of poor birth outcomes
than do identical multiples. Additionally, mothers who conceive
multiples via ART tend to be monitored more closely than are mothers
who conceive multiples naturally."

Age of Mom Not Risky for Twins, Triplets," by Ross Grant. Personal MD. 2002
http://www.personalmd.com/news/n0916055708.shtml

One important point brought out in this second article is that older
women are often using assistive technology to conceive. Their economic
status and particular concern for prenatal health may be different
than that of the mother who conceives multiples naturally.

"Zhang admits his research leaves out critical information about the
mothers of twins and triplets, since it focused mainly on the health
of the babies. Because of limitations in the records, the researchers
weren't able to evaluate all aspects of birth by older women."

(This is a factor that must be considered in the lack of risk.)

"Zhang's data, collected between 1995 and 1997 by the National Center
for Health Statistics, probably will reassure older mothers about the
safety of pregnancy. However, understanding why twins and triplets
born to older women are safer than had been thought is a complex
issue.

"The paradoxical phenomenon is due to a combination of medical and
socioeconomic factors," he says. For example, older women who use
assisted reproductive technology or drugs are usually monitored more
closely than younger mothers who conceive naturally. They are also
more likely to get counseling or prenatal tests than young women."

*** "Another reason is that natural twins and triplets, who often
come from a single egg splitting, generally share the same placent
