HV appointment

Bug and I seen the health visitor this afternoon.

19lbs 13oz!!!!

Now above the 50th centile! He was born on the 75th centile (8lbs 11oz) and dropped to below the 2nd centile but he's climbed his way back up!
HV also done some developmental checks - is he rolling, babbling, sitting. I sat him down on the floor for her and he was smiling away. She was also getting him to follow a pen which he soon lost interest in. I mentioned that he's trying to crawl. Overall she's happy with him. I don't have to take bug back to see her until he's a year now although if there are any concerns I can just call up and make an appointment.

HV was worried with how I'm doing.
She asked how I was getting on. I mentioned that I was feeling down, teary and then guilty for it all. I said I hadn't seen my GP yet because if I feel this way because I'm tired (from not getting a break etc) then I didn't want her thinking I was a nut job. HV assured me GP wouldn't think that and I should really speak to her. I felt myself getting upset and kept just kissing the top of bug's head :(
HV asked some more questions which I can't really remember but I had to do another one of those multiple choice things and my score was worse than it was before. She also asked if my ex had been in touch. He hasn't and I think it's better no contact than half assed contact. HV agreed.

Anyway.. I made an appointment to see my GP. It's Monday 22nd November. Almost 2 weeks away but I wanted to see my own GP and not some random temporary one I've never met before.

I wasn't sure whether to write about this or not.
