Havent written for ages too silent. Back at work now with the mums and babies the babies are really cute but I am over work. We went to a retirement seminar the news is not good, have to do a few more years. Lucky I only do 2 nights a week and it is nice to help the new mums becoz the nights are the hardest and they often get quite upset. It is very exciting during the day with a new baby but different when you have no sleep. We have rooming in that is the babies stay with the mothers all the time which the brought in years ago so they could reduce staff but of course girls with caesarian sections, difficult deliveries and just really tired mums need some sleep and help with caring for their babies. Also leaving babies in the dark with an exhausted mother when the babies are a bit vomity after birth. I am always amazed that we dont loose more babies at night, probably only becoz we ignore the rooming in thing and take any babies we are worried about out to the desk. havta go
