we have been to a doctor and currently just waiting things out, we had a bought of projectile vomiting last week but it’s subsided.

he said baby has baby acne but it has got worse since seeing him.
they seem to come up and go down and it changes often!

little one had bad reflux but this seems to have eased a bit in the last couple of days.

no 2 poos are the same, she had little specs of green the other day, watery poo after that, and today like this… very mucusy, most poos have had mucus in, but today more so than usual

she’s breast fed all day and given one bottle of formula at night she’s 5 weeks old.
seems quite happy otherwise
sleeping well.

Hi, this was exactly like my baby. At 5 weeks old he started getting what I thought was baby acne but turned into a rather and then angry eczema. Investigated for reflux but didn't respond to medicines so went down the CMPA route and changed milk to hypoallergenic on prescription which sorted him out eventually. Don't give up with the Dr's, you sometimes have to fight. Good luck

Did you ever find out the cause of this, only my 5 week old had had the exact same symptoms

Does your LO have any of these symptoms @Bubbasteve?
