Drop your experiences/stories with your health visitor

My health visitor was lovely, she didnt inspect my home or anything, she just visited and talked and see how baby and I were getting on x

I wouldn’t worry. As long as there’s no sign of any abuse to you or baby etc they don’t care who you live with. They don’t care if the house is a bit messy or if you’re not in your best clothes. Their whole job is just making sure you and baby are coping well. In fact I would say They’ll probably consider living with your parents good as you’ll have more support.

The first few visits/ calls health visitors ask the same questions over and over. They have a set list that they have to ask which varies depending on bottle feeding or breast feeding. In your red book on page 56 is the questions they go through and any health visitor you talk to will ask them each time.

Don’t get me wrong not all HV are good. I had a shit one for my first baby but this time they’ve been brilliant. If you really don’t feel comfortable with the one that visits you are allowed to request a different one. But try not to overthink it beforehand xx

They wouldn’t judge you being with your parents at all. If anything, it would show that you have a good support network around you! Sounds like you are doing amazing, try not to worry x

Mine was really lovely and got her ear talked off by my 2 year old. I’ve been lucky with all that I’ve come across, including with my son.

However, I do know that this isn’t always the case and I think you’re right that there’s already what I would consider a red flag with how she’s giving you information about breastfeeding. It would have made me think there was a weird vibe from what you’ve said!

Hopefully it all goes smoothly, but also be confident in yourself and how you feel it’s going. You can request someone different if you feel the vibes are off x
