Pre birth health visitor appointment

Has anyone refused a pre birth health visitor appointment. Ive never got one with my 2 other children they just came after birth. This time they have sent me a date to come visit. I dont feel I need a meet and greet appointment to know what they are about considering ive got a 5 year old and a 3 year old.

Sleeping through crying newborn

I spent a lot of time on the post natal ward which turned me into a really heavy sleeper (was a really light sleeper before). And now I sleep through my baby crying - anyone else just completely does not hear their child cry or am I a bad mum?! Luckily I always wake up to my husband feeding her 🙃…

Sterilisation

I understand the NHS guide line is to sterilise everything till they 1 year old but my little one has started nursery and everything is going in her mouth so all germs and bugs are being exposed to her. Did you still sterilise when your little ones started nursery before they were 1? I’m struggling to see if there is any point at this stage 🤷🏻‍♀️🤔

Sleeping through the night

My baby is sleeping through the night completely now, from 8:30-6:30. This means he’s dropped 2 feeds, but is still having the same amount during the day. Shall I offer more during the day as he’s technically having less now? He doesn’t seem to want anymore in the day though.

Anyone else against baby sleeping at their in laws?

She has slept at my parent’s multiple times and I don’t worry one bit but the thought of her sleeping at my partners parents I can’t help but worry at the thought of her staying there
