Does Erica seem to have a Lil cold?

My thoughts are as long as she didn't bring up the whole feed you've giving her she'll be fine & you don't need to do anything else but continue to feed her when she requires it.

If her nose seems to be blocked or a bit snotty you could probably buy some saline nasal spray " sold in all major supermarkets"

Robert does this quite often, I think basically it's when a bit has gone down the wrong way, just as happens occasionally when we drink. And as Abenaa has suggested colds seem to make it worse. Hopefully she's fine now.x

Sometimes if the sick comes up to quick and cant get out thru the mouth it will come thru the nose as well. .... It can burn so if she is upset u know why. .. If she has started wheezing since being sick then I'd be worried it has gone down the wrong hole into her lungs. .. If u are concerned at all ring 111 for advice or take her to a&e they will see u... They don't mess about with newborns hope she is Ok xxx
