Oh sweetie, i've no idea whats been going on with you, sorry. But if it's making you that distressed, then i think it would be a good idea to go and get some reassurance.

if she and you are distressed, and the hospital have an open door policy, why not take her?

if she is in an acute phase of whatever is happening, might it be better for the medics to see her?

I don't know your history, but agree with thelittleelf, if it distressing you and DD this much then take her in for a check and some reassurance.

they have sean her like this, loads shes only 18 weeks old and this been happening since 2 weeks old, they make us feel like we shjould cope, as we know that the postures only are not harming but i dont like seeing her like this, it casn last up to 7 hours

Is there a friend or neighbour you could call round to sit with you for a while, just to give you some support? Or failing that,just call an ambulance. That way you are not driving her there alone iykwim?

Take her trace2. Poor thing - you must be so sick of the not knowing.

TBH I'd be inclined to take her every time - just so they can see just how often it's happening. Do you keep a diary trace? - noting how often and how long each one is and hwo she is before and after. I'm sorry you still don't know what's causing this.

thelittleElf · 18/10/2007 09:20

I think i would still get her looked at, even just for your piece of mind?

trace2 · 18/10/2007 09:21

yes i do keep a dairy, as she as lots of little staire and eyes rolling in between the postures

Hopefully you will get the reassurance you need over the phone, but if you don't then please just take her in.

thelittleElf · 18/10/2007 09:27
