That's nice, I'm a nurse. *smug face* I'll just reference this thread during our argument.

Our instructor a couple years back wasn't even a nurse. She was a doula/birthing coach. The type that rolled her eyes when talking about mothers getting an epidural. Made everyone in the class feel uncomfortable.
That being said, all nurses are different but most are good and practical. Out of 14 hours of my wife's labour, a nurse was there 100% of the time. A doctor to check in every few hours and then to deliver. Follow what the nurse says and you will be fine.
Like many have said, all babies are different. What works for some might not work for you. You aren't a bad parent if you have to try different things or what works for your friends kid doesn't work for you whether it is feeding, naps, calming down, etc. Google, polling your friends, etc is a way to gather information and new things to try...But you will find out what works for you, wife and baby.
