111 or a&e?

[Beth2511]

I have a 15 day old who had an overnight hospital stay last week for poor feeding and weight loss,he has really improved since. However his toddler sister came home with a tummy bug Friday and today newborn ds has not fed since 8.30am. He vomited badly at 9am, again at 11.30 and has rejected all feeds no matter how much we tried. Syringe fed him at 6pm and he projectiled it all back up. He also has a temp of 35.3 and barely woken all day.

I don't know what to do :(

Hope he makes a quick recovery and is home soon.

Wishing him a speedy recovery 💐

Thinking of your little chap beth. Hope you and the family are all ok.

Thinking of you all too

Oh god, OP

I'm so glad you took him in and he's now getting treatment.

Thinking of you all and wishing him better very soon.

Thinking of you too. So pleased you're in the right place and hoping for a straightforward recovery.

DS had bronchiolitis at 5mo and was hospitalised on oxygen and with a feeding tube, he was discharged a day later looking so much better. Little ones can go downhill quickly but can also recover quickly too. I on the other hand needed a stiff drink!

Just some practicalities, if you're parked in the hospital car park mention it to the nurses in case you need a longer stay pass. Also, if food on the ward isn't great, you might find more choice in the hospital staff canteen (it's usually open to patients and visitors and often open nearly 24hrs).

Still thinking of you, OP. How is your DS doing?

Thinking of you OP hope little man is on the mend

How are you Beth and how is your ds? I'm hoping he is on the mend. Thinking of you both

Thinking of you and your baby boy

Thinking of you OP

Just seen this OP. You did the right thing, of course. I hope your baby boy is doing better today.

Ds and I really want to thank you all for your concern. Third night here now, I'm exhausted but he is an absolute trooper! And I thought I'd share a picture that makes me a very very proud mum because he has taken so much and barely made a fuss and even treated me to some awake time for the first time in days. He is starting to improve on the feeding front which is a major obstacle we need to over come. His sepsis is being treated with everything they can do and they also think he has a cows milk protein intolerance which isn't helping matters!

I just can't believe how normal he looks now compared to the boy who slept 36 hours straight yesterday/sunday

Oh he is beautiful. What a gorgeous little boy. I am so delighted to hear he's improving. Get well soon, little dude.

Strength and love to you, OP.

Great news! Wonderful that you have turned a corner. Hang on in there and you will both be home hopefully in a few days.

oh he's lovely beth. Really glad to hear he's improving xx

No wonder you are so proud of him, he's an absolute beauty!

He's a lucky boy to have such a caring Mummy, hope he continues to improve as quickly. Look after yourself too.

What a sweetheart!

What a gorgeous little one! I'm glad he's doing better.

He's beautiful OP, so glad he's feeling better.

My DS was in hospital for a couple of days when he was 10 days old and it's the most scared I've ever been, you're very brave

Beautiful boy. So glad he's doing so well.

what a little star - gorgeous boy.

I m so glad he is improving.

He is adorable.

Try and rest when you can it is exhausting been in hospital with them

Oh bless him! He is utterly adorable, thank you for sharing the pic

Hope his recovery is swift and trouble free and that you're home soon
