6–8-week check

Checking your baby’s growth and development

This check is with the Health Visitor. It is a different check to the one you will have with your GP at a similar time. 

The Health Visitor will discuss your wellbeing, how baby is feeding and sleeping, and other topics such as immunisation.

The visit is to review your baby’s growth and talk about how you are feeling.

This is also an opportunity for you to talk to your Health Visitor about any other issues you may have with your baby.
