As mentioned in title, dd (6 weeks old) has the cold. She still seems to be feeding and having wet/dirty nappies but is only waking up for feeds then going straight back to sleep and this has been ongoing all day. Very unusual for her as she's usually a lot more alert and always hungry. I sat in the bathroom with her for 15 mins and turned shower on to help decongest her. Also she feels hot to touch (dont have a thermometer to get accurate temperature). First baby and first cold so obv I'm a bit worried. Do you think it's safe to wait until Monday to take her to doctors or should I contact nhs24? I feel a bit silly contacting them when it's just a cold..
Apologies for long rambling
