She is part of a prenatal unit and she does this for other patients. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/talk-to-me-about-tpns#post-2396485 Tue, 22 Dec 2015 05:54:51 +0000 MrsKRB 2396485@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've never received TPN, but I am a dietitian do I work with them a lot. What it is, is all the fluid/calories/protein/fat/vitamins/minerals you need. It's typically used for short term. You will probably need to go to the hospital initially, but you will be able to continue it at home. You will likely have a dietitian and visiting nurses come to your house frequently to make sure everything is going the way it should. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/talk-to-me-about-tpns#post-2396370 Mon, 21 Dec 2015 22:07:29 +0000 MrsRcCar 2396370@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Talk to me out TPN fluids. I think that's were this pregnancy is headed already. Where you able to administer them yourself at home? Did you have to go to the hospital? How long did you have to recieve TPN fluids?
