Today.. marks the end of my LNU placement. An incredible placement where I learned more than I could ever have imagined. #midwifeinthemaking #studentmidwife #training #learning #teaching #placement #pride #hardwork #care #reflection #love #neonatal

Today I finished my first week in the Local Neonatal Unit. So privileged. Loved every second ❤️ #midwifeinthemaking #studentmidwife #training #learning #teaching #placement #pride #hardwork #care #reflection #love #midwifeinthemaking #premature #neonatal

Today I.. Realised how far I'd come. Supporting a woman through an epidural siting and scribing. First year me would have struggled with both. #student #studentmidwife #training #learning #teaching #placement #pride #hardwork #care #reflection #love #midwifeinthemaking #cpd

Today I also saw my first pre-term delivery at 28 weeks. Words can't even describe the experience. #studentmidwife #training #learning #teaching #placement #pride #hardwork #care #reflection #love #premature

Today my knowledge was tested. It was hard. But I learned so much information that I don't think I'll ever forget. #studentmidwife #training #learning #teaching #placement #pride #hardwork #care #reflection #love #midwifeinthemaking

Today was delivery number 4. Happy Birthday Darling ❤️ #studentmidwife #training #learning #teaching #placement #pride #hardwork #care #reflection #love #midwifeinthemaking #deliveries

Today I... Attempted my first ARM. Unsuccessful but a huge confidence boost at positioning, technique. Onwards and upwards! #student #studentmidwife #training #learning #teaching #placement #pride #hardwork #care #reflection #love

Today.. I was greatful. I worked in the same hospital that I gave birth in. To the exact minute. It made me realise how much I've grown. #mum #mumlife #firsttimemum #studentmidwife #training #trainingmum

Today.. I now have a 4 year old. Appreciated her so much. ❤️ #mum #mumlife #firsttimemum #trainingmum

Today I.. Learned the importance of our words.. Our language.. And how we have the power to influence. This isn't always a good thing. Be kind. Be thoughtful. #studentmidwife #training #learning #teaching #placement #pride #hardwork #care #reflection #love #kind

Fesshole providing the giggles this morning

Today.. My heart is full. Met a lovely couple through community, an immediate bond and to have the privilege of possibly delivering for them makes me unbelievably happy ❤️ #studentmidwife #training #learning #teaching #placement #pride #hardwork #care #reflection #love #happy

Today.. I was privileged enough to be at a 20 week scan as part of caseloading. So educational ❤️ . #studentmidwife #training #learning #teaching #placement #pride #hardwork #care #reflection

Tonight... I'm on call! Love the feeling of possibly going out. It might sound crazy.. But the first baby I ever saw born was a home birth whilst on call ❤️ an amazing experience! #studentmidwife #training #learning #teaching #placement #pride #hardwork #care #reflection #oncall

Today I.. Truly realised how much I've loved every moment of second year #studentmidwife #training #learning #teaching #placement #pride #hardwork #care #reflection

BREAKING: A First responder in the Texas mall shooting pours water over the bullsh*t GOP narrative: “It wasn't mental health that killed these people, it was an automatic rifle with bullets,” he said. “Prayers and condolences won't bring these people back. We need action in the federal and state legislatures for better gun control,” witness Steven Spainhouer told MSNBC. “I’m saying this as someone who loves guns….I'm a former police officer. I’m a former Army officer.” Spainhouer rushed desperately to aid those wounded and dying after shots rang out a little after 3:30 p.m. May 6. He said the victims had such horrific injuries that they had to be loaded into police cars because ambulances would not have gotten them to nearby trauma facilities fast enough.  He also said he also found a child, who survived while covered by his protective mother who had been killed. Ultimately, Spainhouer says what he witnessed Saturday will haunt him for the rest of his life.  Now, he’s calling on Congress to DO SOMETHING. Thank you former officer Spainhouer for speaking out! 💙
