Please no judging

2 years ago I had my 4 year old removed from my care and placed with my mum due to mental health issues after the death of my newborn. It was a long fight but in the end I gave up and let her stay with my mum (most heartbreaking decision I’ve ever made) I still have weekly contact, she’s currently on a care order and in the process of an SGO. However I’ve just given birth to a premature baby. I’ve not informed social 😔 I told the hospital my eldest is in my care...I’ve gone the whole pregnancy and no one has found out, hospital do not know social are involved, however today I received a letter with an appointment from the Heath visitor and I’m panicking! I do not want social to find out about my newborn daughter, but will the health visitor realise my eldest isn’t with me? My mum lives in my are, I’m petrified it’s going to be the same Health visitor as my eldest has and she’ll know, how do I get around this 😭 I can’t lose my baby girl too 😭😭

They shouldn't do this though, I used to be a children's social worker and a lot can happen in 2 years to someone, I was talking about the human rights act and the threshold that they have to work to,
