Height checks for new babies

DS is 5 weeks, and has not yet had his height checked. We have measured him ourselves, but can anyone tell me when I can expect a GP or HV to do so officially?

I think babies usually get their length checked at the 6-8 week check. DS and DD weren't measured when they were born (just weight and head circumference).

Oh, that's alright then - I didn't want him to have missed out.
Thanks for that.
