just got back from the HV and feel absolutely awful
two weeks ago Ffion weighed 10lb 2oz, i got told she was underweight. so i tried so hard to have her on the boob as often as possible to try and make her put on weight..
well this week shes 10lb 4oz.. two measly oz in two weeks i got repremanded by my HV and told to start her on 2 meals a day straight away. she basically called me thick for not realising that ffion wasnt gaining weight and that i should have started her on solids ages ago.
also.. Ffion has had purple skin on her right eyelid since she was born, i checked with my mum (who is a nurse) and she said it was just because she was a newborn and it would go away. well now ffion has been refered to a specialist eye dr because of it and again the hv called me thick for not being worried about it. she claimed i didnt care about ffions health. now i feel scared and stupid. if anything happens to ffions eyesight it will be my fault.
here is a photo of ffions eye it was taken on my phone so sorry for the bad quality:
