“我知道我們幾個(gè)人做過生育治療，”護(hù)士佩奇.帕卡德上周五在新聞發(fā)布會(huì)上說。
That’s how I ended up finding out that everyone was pregnant. I was like, ’Oh, well, I didn’t plan this. Did we have some kind of pact going I didn’t know about?’ Packard said.
帕卡德說，“突然就發(fā)現(xiàn)所有人都懷孕了”。我當(dāng)時(shí)的反應(yīng)是，“哦，好吧，這不是我的計(jì)劃。我們之前有過約定，我一點(diǎn)也不知道”。
There was no pact. The baby fever is just a happy coincidence.
沒有什么約定，同時(shí)懷孕只是一個(gè)幸福的巧合。
The nurses said they all like to go to the cafeteria together to satisfy pregnancy cravings. One said she asked a cafeteria worker whether he could make the salad bar more "pregnancy-friendly," and suggested the cafeteria add pickles and olives.
護(hù)士們說她們都喜歡一起去自助餐廳吃飯。其中一人說，她問過一位自助餐廳的工作人員，是否可以讓沙拉更“適合懷孕”，并建議自助餐廳加泡菜和橄欖。

The 16 nurses are from three different critical care units, said Heather Francis, nursing director for various ICU units at Banner.
“這16名護(hù)士來自三個(gè)不同的重癥監(jiān)護(hù)病房，”班納ICU病房護(hù)理主任希瑟.弗蘭西斯說。
