Had food poisoning, I think, yesterday with sickness and diarrhoea. (Takeout ) Couldn't get ds2 to accept a bottle, so bfed him when he demanded (not sure there was much there tbh given his levels of satisfaction) despite the effect it had on me.
This afternoon he's been throwing up every half hour, lying still for 5 minutes, sleeping for 15 then looking for food, before the cycle kicks off again. (Five hours now.) Seems quite content between throwing up.
Am wondering if it is related to me yesterday and at what point I should call a doctor.

WEll it sounds like it's def not food poisioning but a nasty bug. Keep bf'ing and check for dehydration. If at all concerned all NHS direct.
