I'm not quite the little old lady with the blister packs of multiple daily medications, but I just might be approaching her level of drugstore frequency!
I know I am a regular at the drugstore when the pharmacist doesn't ask my name when I pick up my prescriptions anymore. Instead, I just get handed my bag and a happy wave hello and goodbye. I know I'm a pharmacy regular when I hit my insurance deductible months ago and now pay $0.00 for every single prescription that I get. That alone tells you that I might be a frequent pharmacy flier!
To add to the mix of my usual insulin syringes, blood glucose test strips and two types of insulin, I am now taking a few more pregnancy related things.
Of course I've got my standard prenatal vitamins, but apparently they weren't doing the job at keeping my body happy. So, I'm now taking an iron supplement, vitamin B12 supplements three times a day and your standard prescription grade acid reflux medication.
And there you have it! I'm a regular at the drugstore but they haven't yet offered to blister pack my medications for me into those friendly day by day packages.
Looking for something?
Well, Hello There!
Mama in the City since 2008 and blogging since 2009!
My first apartment baby is now a full on boy and we struggle with finding space in our condo for his growing toy collection. I'm also a new mum to our second apartment baby, born January 13, 2012!
I have a husband who is an excellent cook and takes amazing photos. I work as a labor and delivery nurse and really love the work that I do and gave birth to baby #2 at my work place.
I use this space to write about my family and to share my passion about breastfeeding, birth and parenting. I have a fantastic purse collection and have loved watching it grow, mostly lovely gifts over the years from my husband. I currently have a closet full of purses that are too small or impractical to fit a diaper or sippy cup in, and so they are on hold for future years.
Have a question or a comment? Email me! I also love to read comments left on posts, so feel free to leave me a note!

Yes, I think that would qualify you as a regular! When I worked Pharmacy we had a lot of regulars and something like when you go to Starbucks and every Barista in the 3 stores surrounding your home knows your drink (that happens to other people too right?!), they get to know your face. We used have a lot of our regulars that we thoroughly enjoyed having come in!
