I don't understand what is happening with my DS who is 10 weeks old. He wont feed, and is crying every time I put him to the breast. I have ,managed to feed him a little bit since last night but he will only stay on for a couple of minutes.
I rang NHS direct last night as I was worried there was something wrong with him, much to my DP's disgust as he is sure he is absolutely fine. NHS direct nurse suggested that I was 'tired' and that since he didn't have a fever or wasn't vomiting and he had fed a little bit then he was ok.
I have to go to work today so can't take him over to the doctors (am self employed so can't take time off) unless it is a real emergency. He is sitting in his bouncy chair cooing away at the moment.
Just worried that he has only had 2 short feeds since last night. not normal. Can anyone shed some light?
Sorry post is long and rambling, have had no sleep.
