Continuing the K___'s pre-eclampsia theme...
...although this will be quite a short entry.
K__ the midwife phoned us to discuss coming over to take K___'s blood pressure. Unfortunately, she couldn't do it today.
A bit of background: When we saw D____ at the surgery upon our return from Grantham, she was about to leave on holiday. She was a little worried because of the women from our ante-natal, only a couple had had their babies. And they were expecting a few more. And it might be a bit of a problem if all the women went in to labour in the same week.
"I would have come over today," was K__'s subtext, "but unfortunately, I delivered three babies in the last twenty four hours, and I've got two women in the hospital who I'm supposed to be seeing, but I don't have time... Can I see you tomorrow?"
Which I take to mean that K___'s blood pressure isn't too bad now.

hey there, expectant parents from over the pond. Just wanted to drop you a note to let you know that our little one has popped out. His name is Benjamin, and delivery was an effort, but not nearly so bad as we'd feared.
ReplyDeleteHopefully yours goes just as smoothly!
Hey congratulations! Glad to hear labour wasn't too bad.
ReplyDeleteHope you enjoy your new arrival!
