Dismissive health visitor

Today, we had a health visitor appointment for my two-year-old. The health visitor raised concerns, repeatedly suggesting he might be autistic. She noted he wasn’t giving prolonged eye contact, wasn’t talking as expected, and was throwing toys, saying it wasn’t normal for a two-year-old. I explained he is developing on his own pace—he does give eye contact normally, but he was tired as it was his nap time. He also said hi and bye with his hand, and when she gave him a cup, he creatively used a fork to pretend it was an ice cream. I also know he understands me—he follows instructions, bringing things when I ask. And as soon as we left, he started talking again—saying mama, water, and more. Despite this, she kept insisting on a referral. I also noticed that her tone shifted when I mentioned being Moroccan—she was less kind and more dismissive. I’m looking for other moms’ experiences—has anyone else had a similar situation, where a child was just developing at their own pace but still showed progress afterward?”

When is the most difficult stage of looking after a baby?

Just wanted to know what people think the most difficult stage of taking care of a baby is? Which week/stage or growth?

Nappies

UK people!

Since day one we’ve used Pampers nappies for my little girl. We tried mamia (Aldi own brand) but found they didn’t have as much padding and didn’t like the fit of them…

Has anyone found any other brand of nappy that is just as good as pampers (fit, padding, absorbency ect ect)?? My lo has quite chunky legs so need to be quite stretchy as the mamia ones seemed too tight round her legs, even with sizing up! Just trying to find if there’s any other brands to try!

Thanks!

How on earth do you remove this bloody thing?! I have unzipped the hood from the bassinet but cannot figure out how to remove it!

Breast feeding and weight loss

So many people have told me breast feeding makes you loose weight. Is this true? Did you experience this?

Tesco Nappies have changed 😫

I've just been to Tesco and got our usual Fred & Flo nappies. We've sworn by them since size 4 (Aldi was great before then for us!). We've been in size 7 for a month and they've now changed them this week. They are thinner, rougher, and have much less absorbancy. They now look and feel pretty identical to Aldi, with the "pee zone" areas. Anyone use Sainsbury's and are they any good?
