6 Week check
I was just wondering has anyone had there 6 week check yet? Ive got mine booked for next Friday but have no idea what it will involve. I presume its just a chat about how we are getting on? I have heard some people get internals ect? What do they do to the babys, do they just check them over?

Gracie will have her jabs at same time, oh joy! Least they can have a bit o calpol at 8wk!
Getting stitches checked isnt so bad - they checked mine in hospital and all I did was lie on my side and she looked from behind,
Cole won't get his jabs at the check - the health visitor does jabs here
Ive got a 6 week check at the hospital on Friday to but thats cos i had stitches. I think we have to take baby at 8 weeks for injections and they get a check up at the same time. It sounds like every area is different.
Not been getting on the net very much - hope your stitches/wound healed by now after the probs you had and that you and baby Holly are doing well.
Im doing great thanks how about you??? My wound is all healed now and I feel great! Im loving motherhood and wouldnt change it for the world!! How are you enjoying being a mummy??
Im very lucky and still have my oh at home so we are having a fantastic time the 3 of us Did your hubby enjoy his paternity leave?
Our 6 week check is done by our GP we need to have a double appointment one for us and one for baby, I thought this was the norm but obviously not!Holly has her jabs on valentines day bless.
Look forward o hearing from you xxx
Don't think they give the jabs for lo out here until later either, I have it written down somewhere but had a feeling it was around 8 weeks or so.
I'm just hoping we can sort him out a passport in time for our planned trip back to the UK at Easter!!

The letter just said that my check would be a full check including contraception - so no idea!
I've got the Health Visitor coming tomorrow so I'll ask her what it involves.
