If you have ever driven home from a visit and…

It is 3 a.m. on a busy labor and delivery floor. You have two active laborers, one of them a VBAC you are watching like a hawk, a fresh admission triaging in room 4, and a stack of fetal monitoring strips you still have to interpret, annotate, and chart before shift change. Somewhere in the…
