Ds3 was born April 2020. Health visitor appointment was done via phone. My 8 week check up was done via phone (that was very weird and a waste of time). Luckily, I was allowed to bring ds3 in for his check up.
Postnatal ward was very sad (they should have put the woman next to me in here own room (her father was dying from covid)) and they got a fertility nurse to help midwifes make their staff quota.
Gp didn't want to see ds3 and suggested I take him a&e because I wanted someone to check him when he started to cry none stop. It took couple of months to diagnosis cmpa, he also had a rash and very bad stomach cramps. When I stopped consuming milk products ds3 turned into a new baby.
Ds3 also hates masks. Yes, I'm guilty of keeping him home for the first few months, unless when we went to the park. We social distanded so I really didn't wear a mask. When mask wearing started, the crying started. He still struggles with masks.
Otherwise, he is a very happy boy. He loves his grandmother, expect when she is wearing a mask.
Dh works in a hospital so he used to disrobe and have a bath after a shift and before he hugged dc. He stopped doing that when he finally bought covid in January. Luckily, we had mild covid and he gave it to only me and ds3. Ds1 and ds2 didn't display any symptoms so we didn't test them.
Ds2 was 3 and half, last year and his speech improved in the first lockdown. I can't explain that, but his teacher had put a referral in speech therapy as he wasn't speaking more than 3 word sentence at September 2019. Come the first local he found his voice. He has a stutter but he is trying and has been trying for more than a year now.
