Can anyone tell me, does your baby get weighed at their 6 week check up at the doctors??

Yes they do.

Not always - mine didn't. I probably could have asked if I wanted though.

Not normally - it’s the HV that does the weighing etc during their 6 week visit

Mine did

They do at ours. I had 20 mins with the nurse and 20 mind with Gp.

They don't here, but now they've paired the check up with seeing the HV do the HV weighs them. Don't think our GP even has scales!

Wow! I'm so surprised that there isn't a standard for this!
I will have to ring the doc and check!
Thanks for your replies lovelies!
