Thank You Nurses Awards Program with Pampers ($100 AMEX #Giveaway)

disclosure iConnect Pampers

It’s time to submit your favorite nurses for the Thank You Nurses Awards program!

With my first daughter, I had an emergency C-section.  After delivery, I felt awful. It wasn’t until my other two daughters were born that I realized how much help I needed after my first.  The nurses who cared for me postpartum helped take care of my incision, supported me with getting my baby to latch on, and lifted me up as I tried to get back on my feet again.  For me, this is why I am happy to hear that Pampers has the Thank You Nurses program.  They deserve every bit of recognition for the care and support that they offer their patients.

PAMPERS_TYN_TW

Pampers is launching the Thank You Nurses Awards program, honoring nurses across three award categories: Labor & Delivery, Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) and Postpartum.

To get involved,  share your  stories of nurses who helped make life #betterforbaby by submitting a nurse nomination to the Pampers Swaddlers Thank You Nurses Awards atwww.tongal.com/pampersnurses.

Not only was Pam a huge emotional and physical support, but she also was my delivery nurse.
