Ja,jag vet ,detta är väldigt internt oss barnmorskor emellan...men jag kan inte låta bli att publicera...det är bara så träffande mycket av detta!!!! Gav mej ett gott skratt.....1. You can talk about vaginas, placentas, perineal tears over dinner without vomiting.
2. You can survive a 12 hour shift on just tea and Thornton’s chocolates.
3. Your bladder has a 5 litre capacity.
4. You can do everything with one hand on a night shift as you have a screaming baby in the other.
5. You can go from midwife to scrub nurse to paediatrician/ANNP to obstetrician within seconds.
6. You believe that when someone dares to say “Oh isn’t it quiet today”, something unspeakably terrible will happen.
7. You can smile politely and not burst out laughing when someone tells you they’re going to name their child “Banana Trevor Chardonnay Smith”.
8. You have been covered in at least 3 bodily fluids.
9. You know that “post partum” does not mean your fence is coming apart.
10. You think the only way to measure centimetres is to spread your fingers apart.
11. You think that Crocs are the best shoes in the world (but the damn hospital you work in has banned them).
12. You get really hacked off when you break your back for 2 hours trying to help someone breastfeed and they then say “ Oh you know what this is too hard…I’ll just have a bottle please”.
