It's just one of my little things! I will probably be doing it by the end of this placement! Really though anyway, when a women is in labour is probably not the best time to go into depth about the whys and hows - it's our trusts policy unfortunately to encourage the use of syntometrin. When I've been on community I've talked to my ladies about it and will do more so I'm sure on community in future. It's just my personal view - I'm really sorry...
Hey, no need to be sorry, love!

it's our trusts policy too, and I just say what the midwives do, pathetic, I know. And yeah between pushing I can't discuss Wickham's views!

Please do not feel sorry, I didn't feel that way at all, I know you weren't having a go, hun!!

I haven't really read into syntometrine yet (one of my tasks for the summer of 5780000000000000000000) so if you know any useful articles online please feel free to post any links you have?!
