Feeling Lazy
As you can tell from my 1 a week blog, I'm feeling a bit lazy. To be honest I didn't do a single thing this weekend apart from sleep, I have a night shift tonight which is why I feel it's justified but never the less I'm still feeling rather lazy. I'm also on day 3 of my diet today because I'm a fatty who has an uncontrollable eating habit when I'm on placement so I'm trying my best to eat healthily, I swear if i see another piece of fruit or vegetable I may hurl. On this evenings menu was green beans, peppers, broccoli, carrots, low fat cream cheese with chive and 100g of chips. For anyone who's ever measured a 100g of chips you will know how small that is. Safe to say I was less then impressed, I've eaten more fruit and veg in the last 3 days than I have eaten in my entire life. Anyway I finished my last shift with my mentor on Friday but on Thursday I had the nicest home birth so far, lovely girl, lovely family and just generally a very good vibe. It was her first baby and so it's unusual for a primip (First time mum) to go for a home birth. However, she behaved nothing like a first time mum, she was calm and relaxed and just got on with it. Normally with primps as soon as there in the first stage all hell breaks loose and I want to stand in the corner and pretend I'm invisible. at this home birth is was a completely different story. The lady was so relaxed though and she had the pool set up in her front room with the light streaming down through the windows it was, just a very chilled and very nice enviorment. I definitely did a few page reflection for that one and it was nice to see how my mentor dealt with ladies in labour. I can definitely see drastically different ways of practising when it comes to labour and it was just nice to see another way to guide women. Even though she didn't need any guidance really, she was quite happy to just do the whole thing in her own time :) But anyway the night shift is calling and I'm going to need to do something to wake myself up :) Nightt xx
