... that time of year us emets dread - Winter Vomiting Virus season. Now, I've not posted in a while as returning to work and looking after my little bubba seem to take up every moment of my time, then some! In my last update, I was off to a psychology assessment. Well it turned out to be complete rubbish, it was just another barrage of monotonous questions. The waiting list is still 1 year, but it's been 6 months now, so I'm half way there!
Anyways, so I LOVE my job (I'm a midwife) but days like today are the down-side. Two women on the ward, admitted antenatally with diarrhea and vomiting. I wasn't looking after them and they were in side-rooms with private toilet/bathrooms but I'm still horrendously paranoid. Obviously other midwives and doctors have been in and out of their rooms all day, touching things that they have touched, then coming back out and touching things I will be touching. I drive myself mad with it, honestly! I'm working tomorrow as well so today/tomorrow/friday, I'll be on high-alert and looking out for symptoms and no doubt reading into every little twinge I get.
It's the beginning of a longgggg few months, guys, winter vomiting virus season is here.
