sad it was an error on the part of the nurse, but at least they have changed so it hopefully wont happen again :cwm25:

Well, seems like it, isn't it, Baboy? especially if the one handling the pregnant woman during giving birth is very careless.

In fairness to the nurse, I've had a saline drop before & there isn't much written on it. I guess she got it confused :Erm:
