Appointment with the midwife

They usually do the heel prick test and ask you if you need any help/ how you’re feeling/ getting on. I had stitches and she offered to check everything looked okay down there. Congratulations on your baby x

@Yasmin thank you sweet💙

As @Yasmin has said, they'll weigh baby to see how much they've lost and come up with a plan if needed (varies from trust to trust what the plan is). The heel prick test and if baby has been jaundiced, they'll recheck their bilirubin level as well (ours was rechecked with the handheld device) They also checked how feeding was going, how I was feeling and checked my stitches for me.
