Dilemma, we missed the test while still in the hospital...have an appt this afternoon ..yes, of cos i want to get her test ...its routine right and you think..should better do it and get it done but not keen to take her out in this kind of weather!!...i believe her hearings fine as someone bang the door the other day and she jumped...would you take your 5wks old if you were me??? its so hard to take her out when shes so little and when its so cold!

If she is not ill, wrap her up well and just go and get it out of the way Could be even colder and more miserable when you are given a new appt.for Jan or Feb

my hv did the hearing test at home

suprised you have to go to the hospital

might be worth asking if they can do it during one of their visits
