dd excelled herself at a HV assessment!
the HV share facilities with the midwives, the physio and the chiropodists, and we had recently attended as I had a frozen shoulder.
Now dd was always a chatter box, and this assessment was the one where the HN makes pleasant conversation and includes the child. I think it might have been the age three one??
I assuredly said..yes, very chatty, loves to sing, draw, stack stuff. No worries about anything, really interested in her brother's school stuff blah blah blah
DD sat there and scowled, not a bit of interaction...HV obviously does not believe a word I have said and says we should book a return appointment
At which point dd stands up, looks the woman up and down and says...."You are NOT the physiotherapist, I am not coming back here" And says to me..."is she going to fix your shoulder or not?"
The HV said "oh I see, really no speech worries then!"
...thanks for that dd! :o
