I called nhs direct who wanted us to go to paeds immediately despite me saying her colour is good, she is alert, wanting to feed etc etc. I even said can I try one more feed to see if it stays down. No feeding until we get there I was told. Apparently if we didn't take her in they were sending an ambulance. I said it's a bit OTT but they said they can';t risk it with babies.
So we get the boys out of bed, pack a bag etcetc. Get there, temp is fine, she looks fine and fed fine, no sick. We had to stay for obs but I felt such a fraud. I wanted to hold off going in but nhs direct said they'd send an ambulance if we didn't, can u imagine the HV coming around .
She was weighed, 9lb 1oz so she has gained in her 1st week lol so I can't be doing that bad on boobie milk. Her projectiole sick was probably a combo of wind and gutsing!!! How embarrassing I'm a third timer, I should know these things. I just had a blind panic, she's so little, I was worried she had a bug being sick like that was so out of character.
We all got home at gone 2am, exhausted doesn't even cover it!!
Some pics.
