Hiya everyone. Please if some one can help me. So for the last for days my almost 5 month old son has been so offish. He has always been in a routine from about 9 weeks old. He was drinking 7oz bottles 5/6 times a baby + baby porridge or vegetables for brunch each day.
5 days ago now he started to reduce the milk he was drinking and only drinking about 5/6 oz but still has his porridge or veg.
Over the last few days he has been very sicky but nothing too bad, his wee also started to smell reallly bad too so i tried to get him in with my gp but or course couldn't get an app. Called my health visitor yesterday but still no call back and they are closed over the weekend.
Anyway... lastnight just I was dropping off to sleep he was fidgety in his next to be crib, so I picked him up to settle him and he projectile vomited all absolutely everywhere, I had never seen anything like it was all coming his nose and everything, but then he couldn't get his breath his throat was blocked and when I lay him down to change him when he seemed abit better he could not breath on his back, I called 999 but 1 hour wait for ambulance whilst I was on the call to 999 he started projectile vomiting clear mucus again all out of his nose and again couldn't breath again. Me and my partner had to rush to the hospital on our car with him sitting on my laugh so he could catch his breath. Anyway the go seen him and said everything fine he's fine probably a bug.
I'm so anxious and scared now I just know he's not him self and in my heart I know it's not a bug. Has anyone else had anything like this with their babies could anyone please help me.

I'm so scared of it happening whilst he's asleep and I am and he chokes because both times it's happened he physically can not breath ok his back.
