This stuff is amazing. Easy to understand I’m following along with the cards. And it’s starting to click. I’m starting to remember. 😊❤

[lollyshields]

Thank you for verbalizing the answers for the quiz on this video. It helps when I am driving and don't have to look at the screen while driving, for correct answers! I really appreciate you!

[lerandagarib]

I love your teaching style. I love how you are stressing on some vital points. Making me remember it good!! 👍

[pottsasata]

Only channel that helps me pass exams by understanding concepts in 5 minutes

[joelsytairo]

Gtpal starts getting really confusing once you throw twins into the mix

[michaelmenemene]

This was so articulative and precise. Your flashcards are definite must have! Thank you for sharing.

[newyorknurse]

I will be taking my NCLEX soon and I love your video presentations. They're short but concise. I love how you focus on those important details. I've been answering quizbanks and those topics you discussed are really coming out.

[sheniecemorris]

Thanks for sharing 👍 I'm a new midwifery student n this was very helpful

[Humbletrader]

i can listen to you all day, , what a presentation, thanks!

[gaylegonzalez]

Hi Maris, I just started listening to you today in preparation for my test next week. I have always followed Cathy but noticed lately you are the new face for Level Up. I was hesitant at first, bc I am a very anxious with change-not saying you are not good, but your not Cathy. Your entire OB playlist is great! and I love all your stories you add to them bc although I have had 2 babies some of these things I am clueless on like the NST, and now I can put it all together with my readings and hearing you talk about them bc its not the same when you just read it so THANK you! continue to look forward...Would yall consider doing videos with questions and you review the rationale after each, yall did do one I remember and it ended with questions.

[gracegiammarresi]

Thank you I just reviewed it all but felt stuff was already getting muddled, helped keep my memory clear !

[mitchelljimeno]

Praise the Lord! thank you for this vid!

[kidemb]

You said for the one hour glucose tolerance test will be done at 24 to 48 weeks but I think you meant 28 weeks and not 48 weeks!

[naniebella]

Oh, I LOVE Cathy’s (I hope that’s how it’s spelled it) rule !

[viojugd]

Beautiful presentation thanks so much dear

[blackgoddess]

You are so awesome! Thank you so much for making these videos.

[usuallyright]

thank you. this was helpful, especially with the lab values

[danielleverna]

My school has the acronym GTPALM….m would stand for multiples (multiple babies born at a time counted as one birth and only counted after they are born)

[rebeccaanthony]

Thank you for your review! I don't know if its different for you, but we consider babies born 37 weeks + full-term and babies are preterm if between 20 to 36 weeks 6 days gestation. I am getting confused on calculating GTPAL when a pt has an IUFD, stillborn or if child lived for a short time & then passed away. & Does it matter if the child passed away at 3 hours of life or 3 years old? Also, what about twins, triplets, etc How to calculate these different factors in?

[sarahhendrickson]

24-28 weeks? I think she said 24-48 weeks for glucose tolerance test
