When I got a call from the local
health visitors a couple of weeks ago wanting to arrange a home visit I started
to panic, I thought why are they visiting me? I work for a decent company, I
have a nice home so why the pre-visit. As always I raised my concerns on
twitter and was relieved to discover I wasn’t the only person they did a
pre-visit for.
As the weeks have gone past my
twitter lovelies have had their visits and have made me feel at ease well as
much as they could.
But still this morning I decided
that even though my house is kidda like a show house most of the time I still
needed to make sure it was clean. So I have just spent the last 2 hours,
dusting, hovering and mopping all so I give a good impression to the health
visitor!
So did it make any difference?
Did it heck Paula turned up and looked very friendly I showed her into the
living room and offered her a drink. She then ran through various questions
some I found a strange but I understand why they have to ask everyone questions
about domestic valance and drug and alcohol abuse. She also gave me quite a few
leaflets about breast feeding, Vit D, cot death and immunisations by the end of
the hour I felt happy she answered some of my questions and made me feel
confidant that I could ring her or one of her colleagues if I needed to. She
didn’t ask to see the rest of the house or the nursery.
