Hi all!
Just received a letter about a visit I’ll be having by a health visitor before baby is born was just wondering if anybody else had this and what to expect?
They’ve given me an appointment after my due date so I’m gonna have to change that 😑

Everyone gets on here, just so that you’ve met them before your baby arrives, they’ll give you your red book and just have a chat. Nothing to worry about!

I had this appointment with DC1 and DC2- they ask if you're feeling well, if there are any issues with the pregnancy or if you're having a section or anything different planned for birth. They ask if your partner or you smoke drink or use drugs and if there's any domestic abuse. They ask how you plan to feed the baby and gave a leaflet on recognising baby blues and PND. They tell you what they will do after baby arrives and you can ask any questions.
