Could we stick Nick Denton in one?

Can you not just refuse to leave?

Eh, I think you don’t understand the UK healthcare system. Midwifery doesn’t mean “natural”, it just means “midwifery”. I had morphine, entonox, an episiotomy, all after being induced, and most of that was administered and attended to by midwives in a hospital.

Just to let you know - midwife care is the standard for UK pregnancy/post-natal care.

I know.

I've used some magic to get you in the black for now ;)

It's hypocritical because they don't want to stop these pregnancies in the first place.

Not unless you want to share with an eight year old who will pick the sleep crusts out of your eyes in the morning against your will.

Pretty sure I am PMSing, but fuck Tennessee and duck the US. I am staying in Scotland.

Well, the bitchy tone is because this is a stupid fucking law. People in general lie about their health all the time, and it’s HCPs jobs to judge a situation without being judgemental, not “Hang on, you are not following the recommended advice? Let me phone the DA for you.”

Well, I am a woman who has been pregnant, and even if I were addicted to drugs I would prefer to be referred to as a woman rather than an addict.

I am SHOCKED.

Of course, because that would be requiring effort.

Urgh.

you’re such a queen

That fucking story had me in tears. TALK ABOUT IT TALK ABOUT IT TALK ABOUT IT

Whomp there go my pants

Like I said in my reply, it has been shown to be an excellent first line antidepressant in emergency cases.
