Congrats on the new arrival TS she kept you all waiting but bet she's a bundle of joy.

Just had a short siesta after lovely day here in Spain. Yesterday was light rain & sunny intervals. Today, really hot & sunny. We took a drive out to a couple of local villages & walked the dog then had lovely tapas in a friendly cafe. I sat in the shade but my feet were still burning!

Trying to keep up with the thread & although having a great time here I'm jealous of the glitches & bargains I'm missing out on.

Really hope the weather improves in Uk. A couple have come out here for a weeks break to escape. Hope Bubbs is not affected again by the floods & your Mr Shoes glitch (mega jammy good fortune lol) is in a safe place.

Good wishes to all xx

Hello :wave:
Glad your sunning yourself while we have rain, rain and more rain:eek:
We are on flood alert but came in about 1/2 hr ago and river has dropped:T:T
Some poor people are not as lucky as me:(
Some of my goodies are coming with me like the camera and £300 shaver, the rest is well away x

Yes I love this name. We used to have soo many odds and sods that we had 2 man drawers to fit it all in, however my BF decided to leave me 6 days before christmas so I have now cleared the man drawers and I can see drawer!!!! So now they are my woman drawers (which sounds a little odd).

Sorry to read that, hope your ok?

I'm doing okay worked A LOT over christmas (including boxing day), so only now am I getting to put my life back in order. Will make everything easier when he moves all his things out, and I can have his wardrobe space for the christmas tree, wrapping paper, extra bedding etc, then i can really tidy and move on. Still sucks, family and friends have been super supportive though, bless their souls.

My last shift was in May 2012 :eek: I finished then for my maternity leave.
I'm not going straight back into clinical work. I have a lot to update myself on so have a study week covering changes to policies, H&S, moving and handling, infection control, emergency drills etc. Then I have a supernumery phased return for 3 months where I'll be shadowing my colleagues and getting back up to speed and used to shift work again.

Maybe your boss was thinking she was supporting you by easing you back in gently rather than suggesting you weren't capable of returning straight to your post. Is it just going to be a temporary arrangement? I know i'd be bricking in if I was thrown straight back into where I left off. Best of luck with your meeting

I think it is so supportive that they have given you a gradual return to work. Hope it works out that way, I know midwives can be rushed off their feet at times.

Congratulations to tinyshoes - very apt name for the patter of little feet.

bubbs- are you leaving site very soon? All packed up?

I have family in South Wales, I hope they are safe in these storms.

I bet you are.
The article is depressing read though, you can only stretch yourself so thin before something snaps
Hope your workplace is a better environment than this one mentioned.
It must be such a fullfilling job though. I'm honestly in awe about childbirth. To be part of such an intimate moment in someone's life is truly magical x

Sad to say that I don't know of a unit any different to the one in the article. In fact it is the same for most departments in the hospital too.
I'm lucky that my colleagues pull together on difficult shifts in general and are being supportive about a gradual return to the mayhem
It's a really privileged job. I am continually amazed by what women can do. If we didn't adore the job and want to do the best for our ladies, most of us wouldn't put up with the working conditions.
