Girls, thankyou for ur replys!!
I've had a thought today...and I just think I'm
being OVER worried... And paranoid!
I've been really struggling with "worrying" since
giving birth... Was told I had PND but stopped
taking my anti-depressives..after 4days coz I know
i'm okay...just being sooo worried it's making me go
nuts...
I feel really bad for what I wrote this morning..
I really should give Poppy a bit of a break!
She's still only tiny and it was wrong of me to
say what I said! Not that it makes any difference
if she's got any problems... I love her regardless
she is such a blessing to me!
I've decided to not post anything for a while
although all you girls are sooo helpful.. I think
it is feeding my paranoia..with me posting constant
worrys..which seem to change from day to day..with
my moods.
I just need sometime to think and straighten myself
out and enjoy being with my beautiful daughter!
Thanks everyone for helping me over the last
7weeks. Xx hopefully be back someday to help
other mums who are struggling with worrying

I hope everything is ok x
I really think you should take your baby to your GP if you have these concerns. 8 week babies are so small and really don't do an awful lot so its quite possible that a doctor or midwife wouldn't find anything wrong immediately but if you told them of your concerns i am sure you could be referred to the paediatricians. If your baby was too young to assess properly they would be able to give you a follow up appt for a month or 2s time.
Please go and ask to be referred, no one will think badly of you if you have genuine concerns. x
Good luck with you little lady x
xx
I hope everything goes okay for you hun xxx
My niece has Turners syndrome and it took my sister ages to get her diagnosed, she just kept getting fobbed off first by hv's and also by dr's. One of the physical symptoms of TS is that they are very small but my sister was just always told oh she's just small she'll get bigger! Due to my sister pushing so hard to get her diagnosed meant that treatment could start a lot sooner than it would have done otherwise.
Anyway, sorry for rambling a bit there but basically just wanted to say don't let them fob you off.
Do you trust yor GP? If so, make an appointment for the 8 week check. If not, ask to be referred to one of the paediatricians at the hospital where you gave birth xx
