The other day I took Rebekah to the local baby clinic to figure out how the British system works!!! She got given this bright red "Personal Health Record" that all British babies are given at birth. All her facts and figures will be recorded in here and there are charts to plot her growth etc. Not quite as high-tech as our doctor's in the US but then we don't have to pay for it here!! Rebekah weighed in at 13lbs 6oz. The health visitors were really nice and I also met someone from the Family Information Centre who sent me loads of info on local toddler groups and pre-schools etc. I felt like such a foreigner but it was a very productive morning! Next time I go I'll take James too.
