I took DD1 every 4wks at first and after about 6 months I left it a couple of months each time until she reached 1 when she had her annual assessment.

DD2 is due August and I'm dreading getting her weighed. It's a drop in clinic but have been there up to 90mins before. It wasn't so bad with DD1 but with two I'm just thinking it's going to be a little difficult and I just dislike the setup I guess. It's my only option though, I can't book private appointments.

So how long can I get away with do you think (unless there are concerns with her weight of course)?

Thanks all

Haha oh dear, I took dc1 every four weeks religiously until around 18mths. Now on dc4 and she hasn't been weighed since the midwife left on day 10. Grin

Dc1 - every week
Dc2 - twice in total
