Bethany had an accident whilst we were out a couple of weeks ago. She fell down a couple of steps and bumped her head. Dh was right there with her and caught her before she fell down any more, but she'd already hurt herself. We had to take her to a&e where they glued the cut on her head. It was horrible, she was so upset
So fast forward to today and I have a letter from Children's Community Services saying that an appointment has been made for a health visitor to come to our home next Tuesday. At first I didn't even think about the hospital trip and I was very confused, but after having a look at other forums it seems it's normal to be contacted by them after a trip to a&e.
However, Bethany was bitten by my uncle's dog when she was 11 months old and we never had a visit after that, and that was a much worse injury! So I'm worried this might be about something else. Dh said there's been a lot in the news recently about everyone being on the lookout for signs of domestic violence and this could be because I had bruises on my arms after my gtt and routine 28wk bloods the weeks before. I bruise badly whenever I have blood taken.
So, basically, can anyone say anything to put my mind at rest? Has anyone had a visit like this? What do they do/say when they come? I'm emotional and hormonal atm and this is stressing me out even more
