That’s a postpartum haemorrhage then. Baby came at about 2 and i got to see and speak to Mrs throbber by about half 5 and she was okay, just a bit doped up.

 

Yes I know, they also had to dig the placenta out with their hands!

You claiming to work in healthcare is much more of a Walter Mitty fable than anything I have come up with you absolute screwball.

 

I see Jimmy more of the Dr Shipman than  the Florence Nightingale school of healthcare.

You can actually eat placenta. I was thinking of opening up a placenta based eatery just round the back of the Royal infirmary.

 

Tastes like liver apparently, I think mushroom pâté on melba toast is the way to go for the starter. Mix it up with some veal to make meatballs with freshly made spaghetti and ragu sauce for the main.

I never witnessed that part fortunately, if they had told me she had lost 2.5 litres of blood I would have broke down probably.

Was that your last pregnancy or did you go on to have another one after that? There’s is a 10% chance of it happening again the next time, I think those are good odds considering how quickly she was seen to this time round, they will be even more prepared for it second time around and if it’s a 1/10 chance it doesn’t really scare me that much.

Pints surely? 2.5 litres is half her blood. :unsure2:
