Paediatrician Review

wanted to ask how your baby’s 8-week paediatric review went.
I’m feeling quite concerned about how my baby’s review was handled. We went in for the routine 8-week check, but the doctor seemed to brush off every concern we raised, repeatedly saying “that’s normal.” I understand that some things may indeed be normal, but the approach felt rushed, and the examination didn’t feel thorough or reassuring.
What made this more worrying for me is that I’ve had a similar experience with the same doctor before. About two years ago, when I went in for a leg ulcer, I also had a severe headache that day. When I tried to mention it, he dismissed it and said we should “stick to the problem of today.” That experience left me feeling unheard, and this recent visit brought back those same concerns.
It’s made me wonder—are babies not supposed to be reviewed by a paediatrician? I’m also worried about having the same doctor for future appointments, as I don’t feel confident in the care we received.
