When I took ds to have his hearing test at the hospital I noticed my file had a hot pink post it note on the front saying home birth (talk about confidentiality). Then they said he was jaundice (all mine look terrible when they are born - DHs not so lively skin type). She did the light gun test three times, I kept saying he was happy, alert, feeding well , wet nappies. That he looked yellow but he was ok. She said I had to go wait for a dr to see my baby before I could go home. I pointed out that not in fact I could leave anytime I liked and I was choosing to get a hearing test done not a jaundice test! She said she would make a complaint to docs if I didn't see a dr.

Docs never called. My DH and MW were so sorry I'd gone alone.

Great health system.
