To call 111?

[ironinglady57]

My LO turns 5 months this week. She usually feeds 5/6oz every 3 hours (formula fed-no judgement/opinions on that please)

It is now 3:20pm and since 6:30am she has had around 5/6oz total today. She is either refusing to feed or taking tiny bits.

I seem to remember that my midwife said to take baby to hospital if she refuses to feed - that feels a bit premature but is 111 the correct service to use now? I won't get a GP appt until tomorrow.

You could phone your GP surgery and ask to speak to a doctor. But I think 111 is probably going to be quicker and simpler. Hope your LO feels better soon

She may just not have been hungry. OP didn't say she was ill? I'd give her a bit longer, keep an eye on her temperature etc. Or you could ring 111 and as kids do she'll then instantly take her full bottle!

Any symptoms of illness at all? is she settled, happy and wetting her nappies as usual?
