Phone NHS 24 and they will usually arrange an appointment for you to take your baby to your local Children’s Hospital. It sounds like you need medical advice.

Oh god really I thought it was just reflux/fussiness and that someone would know how to stop it.. now I'm scared

How did you get on with HV? I got advice on vomiting and was told it was normal. Winding mid feed or several times if your baby feeds for a long time. Did they give you any other tips?

I was simply expressing my opinion that phoning a medical professional and getting your very young baby checked out is what I would do (and did) with mine, because until you know what’s normal for your baby, isn’t it best to be cautious?

Plus if it just reflux, you would need medication prescribed so need a doctor for that anyway.
