Where is everyone?

As the last post on here was mine from last week I presume that a small tornado has ripped through Cardiff, destroying everything in it's path......This could be true as I haven't seen any news all week, and have only just woken up after 13 hours sleep (went to bed at 4 this morning after delivering a baby and have just woken up after 5 this eve)

I have nothing to report as I have only seen my consultant once all week, apparantly he normally phones to check if the students have been on the labour ward but he hasn't in my case so either he trusts me to turn up or he doesn't care at all.

This week I have been the Jonah of the labour ward, many of the ladies I have been with have ended up with a ventouse delivery or emergency c-section, although towards the end of the week I had several who went to the toilet at 6-7 cm and came back out ready to push. The most farcical one was a turkish lady who spoke no english and whose husband had to come in by bus to help consent his wife for her c-section (placental abruption) the consent took longer than the procedure.

Happy days
