Following the Herd

So, everyone else has a baby ticker so I thought I may as well join the masses!!

I think I need a fucken (excuse language but it is needed for effect)huge rark up!!

I had to go to Christchurch Women's Hospital the other morning for a referral because of my f-en blood pressure. Of course, I sat there waiting and getting agiated for over an hour and then my blood pressure was 166/94. Then I had this extremely obese, snot dribbling, pen in ear - picking out the wax, Arab registrar who went completely over the top and set me up for a myriad of crazy tests and scans and two - four weekly visits for the rest of my pregnancy!! At first I got angry, nay livid!!! Then last night I thought about it. I bloody well knew that this would happen if I didn't eat healthier. I said out loud to someone that if I didn't do what was needed and the hospital became involved then it would be my own bloody fault. AND IT IS!! I have acted proactively. I have bought a copy of Perfect Blood Pressure and I aim to sort my excretions out and get on to it. I have 3 kids and can not afford to be stuck in hospital by some frickin junior doctor who is following the book to the letter!

Part of my lack of really great eating has been a combination of winter, tiredness and lack of organisation. Really hard to cook something healthy for dinner when I get home at 6pm and there are stuff all groceries. So, have to be on to it get back to weekly menus and grocery lists.
