First postplacement visit with SW
Our first post-placement visit with our social worker has just been set up! She comes out on Wednesday morning to visit with us at our home. What should we expect?

Re: First postplacement visit with SW
Abby is just beautiful! We just went thru details of her dr appts, how she was doing, basically just eating, sleeping, etc. as well as any milestones she may have reached. Also, they want to see how you and DH are adapting and see you interact w/ her...it'll be a piece of cake!!
She'll just see how well you are bonding, talk about her feeding, sleeping, and play schedule and routine, and how well she is developing and information from previous dr. appointments. You'll also probably talk about the match, placement and how that all took place. It's no stress.
We had a 2 week post placement and are now doing our 2 mo meeting. I think we were so sleep deprived and exhausted with the 2 week appointment that we were probably zombies during it - I don't remember it all that much. I know that neither of us greeted her at the door and just motioned her to come on in. So I guess we will all be a lot more alert for his 2 mo meeting since he is on a good sleeping schedule now.
Congratulations!!! When ours came over, we just sat down and talked. Questions about drs. appts, growth, development, schedule and how we were coping with little sleep. It was nothing to worry about!!!! Good Luck!!! Don't worry!!! Your SW is also wishing you and your little one the vesry best!!! Good Luck!!!
