Castor oil in the water?

It has been rather a busy week on the work front – one of those weeks when I start wondering whether someone has put castor oil in the water (one of my friends suggested that BP was to blame but I think he’s getting Castrol and castor oil mixed up which is never a good idea!). We seem to have a few May babies arriving later than anticipated and a few June babies arriving early and so they all start arriving together. Lots of births + lots of visits = very tired midwives – hopefully it will all settle down again soon!
