It says I can gain 1st 1lb. Feckers.
Good job I've gained nowt (and lost some!) then isn't it 
My bump has gone huge, or so it feels, now. I'll do a picture tomorrow and put it up! It's a big difference from my last one! My boy bump is quite low I think??!
I have yet another work based rant! Not being allowed time off for my antenatal appointment next week.... yes. That's right. Great isn't it? I offered to swap my shift to the early, but they wouldn't let me, I have to find someone to swap. No one can swap, I'd already asked the 2 people who could swap. So I asked could I swap with another colleague 'out of area' ie. on LW/ANW. They won't let us do this even though they pull us to go to other areas every single day but I thought it would be far better than saying well i'll just have to go home early then. Got told no, and I should rearrange the appt. Oh, and I've not had any time off for AN care before, and this is likely to be the only one i'll need.
Also being told I can't be paid for 3 extra hours (that have accumulated through the fault of my manager mismanaging my maternity leave) that I have to take it as 'time back' by coming in an hour and a half late on 2 late shifts. Except the extra hours are from nights which is higher pay. And I don't want more time owing when we never get to use it anyway (I have a book with hours and hours of it already!). I don't want to come in late on a shift in the manner suggested because you still get allocated your patients at the start of the shift (when not even there!) and have to do the same amount of work in less time!! Why would I want the stress of that unnecessarily! I was told I was being unreasonable to expect to be paid, because the Trust is in severe financial difficulties. But I will have worked them, so should be paid!
And breathe again!
