Help!

posted 17th Aug
Ok my baby woke up screaming like mad just a while ago. I calmed her down and gave her a bottle.
She didn't seem to be eating like she usually does. Like she wasn't sucking the same. And she got choked twice during her bottle.

When she was done I ran my hand over her head and noticed that her soft spot was really sunken in. It scared me and I took her to my mom. She said that it felt a lot different than it normally does.

I'm really worried, but my mom thinks she's fine since Johanna's now playing and is acting normal. But her spot is still sunk.

What do you think?

A sunken soft spot is typically a sign of dehydration.

Yeah, When their soft spots are sunk in it's isa sign of dehydration. You might want to call your pedi if she isn't eating like she usaully does.

Today she waited a while between each feedings, which is a little unusual for her. She takes 4 ounces. She usually wants food every 3-4 hours. Today she was waiting 5 or so hours.

Maybe I'm just panicing over nothing.

No, I would say you need to call her pedi.

She should be okay, Atleast she is eating. But if it's something your really worried over give your pedi a call. I remember when my daughter was that young she would have days where she didn't eat as much... Is she still having the same amount of wet diapers?

She turned out just fine, thankfully. But now she's got a nasty cold. Stopped up nose, coughing, and a fever.
