Don't really think I need to call an ambulance but am never sure what to believe when it comes to babies.
I have a 4 week old beautiful boy. Was reading a leaflet given to me by midwife re signs to never ignore.
It says 'call 999 if more than 60 breaths per minute in child under 1 years old'
Timed my boy out of curiosity. He's asleep and has a breathing rate of 79 per minute.
He seems absolutely fine other than a bit colicky. I wouldn't have even thought about it if I hadn't read the leaflet.
I'm waiting for a callback from the health visitor who didn't seem concerned - so I don't actually need to call 999?
