"Meals and bedding"

The care was okay so far. 

In my opinion, the food is really needing some work, the food is really bad. It seems they are not focussed on micro-nutrition at all. The vegetable servings are always frozen over-cooked slop. Is it too hard to have a piece of fresh broccoli, a few fresh whole string beans, fresh carrots and a slither of a corn cob? They need to learn how not to overlook vegetables. They are destroying all the nutrition. 

I believe the meat is factory loaves which (despite what the manufacturer is saying) are made with offcuts and meat glue. I can tell they are not fresh, proper cuts of meat. They are drenched with high sodium sauces every time. I believe we need good quality beef and chicken. Is a freshly roasted drumstick too much to ask? Do we have to have processed roast or chopped up stew every time? What about a fresh cut of salmon or fish or a beef cutlet. Do we have to resort to tinned tuna for a fish supply? Even a fresh beetroot juice or spinach smoothie would help to improve blood quality to an unborn child; especially beetroot juice. 

In my opinion, when a mother has issues with their unborn child they need a diet high in nitric oxide, no processed food, and good top quality fats and proteins. I believe there is a lot of research done into the value of blood flow and nutrition to an unborn child. Your food is just not cutting the mustard, in my opinion. I feel it is a real worry to a mother. A maternity hospital should exhibit good quality food. In my opinion, your nutritionist needs to be sacked or actually listened to. 

The non-processed muesli was good, the freshly boiled eggs for breakfast was good. Other than that I don’t know what to say, sorry. 

Look, the food is just not proper nutrition, in my opinion. We are trying to get as much oxidisation and nutrition into our blood as possible. We don’t need high salted, processed crud clogging up our children. We are trying to care for brand new bodies. I believe it doesn’t cost much to blanch a few fresh vegetables and buy some decent meat. 

Also, the bed is appalling, in my opinion. I spoke to many women who said that the mattresses don’t cut it. When you lay on them you can feel the board underneath and it resulted in chronic hip pain for me and poor quality sleep. I ask that the manager come sleep on one for two nights and see how good they are. 

I feel the staff were mostly lovely so far. I can’t stand dogmatic midwives and I have not encountered one yet. This is the place for struggling unborn children, as the doctors are quite good but in my opinion, I would not use my private health insurance here as the food and facilities are really bad. 

I believe using it might help with your budget but are we actually going to see any benefit? What incentive will we actually see?
