Development check??
I've been to the HV today as the woman (another hv) who runs the baby group we go to expressed concern that Gabe was not weight bearing, sitting or rolling. So he has a development check on Monday. Also my HV has had a look at his eczema and says she is going to refer him to a dietitian because eczema is an allergy and it could be caused by something he is eating or drinking.
Has anyone got any personal experience of this?
Also he has only gained 8oz (and prob less as he was weighed with vest on - hes 19lb 9) in 3 or 4 weeks...is it normal for lo's weight gain to slow down once they start weaning? He hasnt reduced his milk yet really.

For instance my Ellie is 7 & a half months & has lost weight in the past 2 weeks due to refusing all food so she is 15lb now whereas my friend's LO was 5 & a half lbs heavier at the same age & there was only 4oz difference when they were born. Ellie sat later than my friends LO but she has started crawling earlier, they are all mad different & tbh I think in a way its great your HV has asked you for the check but it doesn't seem necessary.
Anyway my rant over hope all goes well on monday xx
