My baby usually has 8oz every feed today he hasn’t had one feed of 8oz it’s been 6 or 5 he is 6 months old he has had 4 wet nappies but not heavily wet he also has been coughing and sneezing a lot😩I’m going to ring the doctors tomorrow but I’m so scared whenever he gets ill I hate it he was hospitalised when he was 6 weeks old and it terrifies me every time😭

I wouldn’t be worried as he is having wet nappies and no temperature. I know it’s worrying but I’m not sure wha you expect thr GP to do, the baby doesn’t need antibiotics. Sneezing is common sa they can’t blow their nose!
