The (almost) alcoholic midwife

I’m feeling a bit like a zombie today after spending all night at a labour and not getting home until 11am. I had anticipated that I would be at a birth so had stocked up on Red Bull and another energy drink which came in a large dark-coloured can. Unfortunately, I didn’t realise how much it resembled a can of beer/cider until I pulled it out of my bag on arrival at the hospital and opened it. My client looked quite startled until she realised it was an energy drink – for a moment she thought she had an alcoholic midwife!!
