Know what your baby is eating or drinking. Observe symptoms and be accurate. Write down symptoms and questions and have them by the phone. Be sure to keep asking until you understand the doctor's advice. The more you can tell your doctor about your child, the better he can advise you.
All babies get ill.
You should become aware of any signs that may alert you that your baby is sick. The baby may not seem hungry and may not take as much of the feeding as normal. Your baby vomits with force all or most of the feeding. Babies usually have bowel movements that are formed and yellow to brown color and they have a bowel movement after feedings or every day or two. Usually babies wet their diapers almost hourly.
