To still be worried about my baby?

My baby has had a cold the last week and a half and a chesty cough the last few days, he has a viral rash all over his body which looks horrible and has now spread onto his face/eye. He also has been doing no/really watery poos and generally looking down and vacant. I've been to the doctors and they've told me it's a virus and I know he's ok and there isn't much I can do but it's such a shitty feeling seeing your baby unwell and being unable to do anything about it Sad. I guess I just wanted a bit of sympathy or something as it seems to be going on for ever Sad. He is 7 months old btw. How long does this last for?

When did you go to the doctors last? If you are worried then get a second opinion.

Flowers it's horrible seeing the little ones unwell.

The first doctor was probably right and LO is fine but if you have even 1% uncertainty take him in to be seen again.

Get him checked over.

Jacks I last went yesterday and he's still got the same symptoms, just wondering when it will get easier for him really.

He hasn't got a temperature no, I do believe the doctors just having a feel sorry for myself moment really as I feel so helpless! If he change at all or I am uncertain I will of course get him rechecked x
