just got back from seeing our GP and feeling like the worse mother DS has an ear infection, Dr suspects also anemia, has suggested DP and I go to parenting classes to learn proper nutrition & behaviours for toddlers and to top it off Dr think he should see a speech therapist because he's not talking. I'm a bit shell shocked and rather teary.
He had no symptoms of an ear infection, he is cutting teeth 9-12 so of course he is going to be moody, but he's such a happy kid, we spent all morning laughing and playing. He is still eating, I'm very particular about his diet, he very rarely gets any processed foods, everything he eats I make from scratch. Dr started lecturing me on how many fruit and veg he needs a day, before I cut her off. It's all he really gets to eat, he loves fruit and gets it several times a day, its what he snacks on, he gets veggies for lunch and dinner. he doesnt get takeaways, chips, lollies nothing like that. I know how to feed my child, I'm forever going through annabel karmels books to get new receipes for him to try. I stay at home purely so I can be his primary carer and she basically said I was failing at that.

blaaah so upset, we're not bogan parents, we love our son, we're great parents and for her to imply that he was just short of neglated is devastating. just want DP home, I so need a hug.

OMG! I don't think you need to go to parenting classes, I think you need to get a new doctor!!! what a rude cow! No mother would have picked up on an ear infection if there were no signs of it! far out, I'm completely blown away by her comments! Is there any way you can put in a complaint? I'm sure your doing a fantastic job without bloomin classes!
