Every pregnancy appointment involves some talk of "taking your bloods"/ "I'll need some bloods from you" or similar.
It's not bloods, it's blood or "some blood" or "blood samples". You wouldn't say "look at those sheeps", unless you were three.
I know I am being a bit unreasonable, but it just seems lazy and the sound of it makes me want to poke myself in the eye.
No doubt there is some legit medical reason for it, and I am going to feel like a buffoon....
