Any reply to this yet @sainsburys ??

Hi @sainsburys, can you please ensure your staff at Kidderminster branch understand the laws around breastfeeding. At 8:30pm last night a female member of staff in uniform approached a breastfeeding mother in the car park of your store 1/2

An en caul birth describes when a baby is born completely or partially wrapped in their amniotic sac. This happens in only 1 in 80,000 births!
Would you like us to produce an article or factsheet about en caul birth on the @all4birth website? Let us know! 👇

For the first time I’ve seen, the queue for A&E is that long it’s queuing outside the building. At least 20 people waiting outside.

Is this the new norm?

I dread winter for A&E colleagues and patients.

I have been listening to @SecretMidwife via Audible on my walks and I am so gutted I have finished it. An amazing insight into being an NHS midwife and such an inspirational story of ambition and determination. Highly recommend!

Two kids locally were tested for Covid.
One positive, one negative.
Only Serco got the tests muddled up.
No idea which child was which.
So - yes - that's TWO entire classes now self-isolating.

It takes really *special* skills to earn ��7000 a day, folks.
