Birth Club: January 2010Created By nifagurgleEditor on 01 January 2010

My little boy used to be sick a lot, just like yours, and he choked on his vomit more then once. You just need to have a cool and calm atitude to situations like yours. I surgest going out for the day, leaving yoir hubby with the baby. Go for a manicure or something, and stay away from the house for at least 3 hours. I did this once when my boy was like this, and it really helped to clear the head. I surgest doing this 1 every week or 1 a fortnight, as this will help your mind stop worring. x

Hi, my name is Sammy and my little boy was born at the end of Jan. Its my first time posting here and wondered if anyone else was from Kent, like me.

Hello Everyone,

Sorry this is the first time ive posted on here.

My little boy is normally sick a bit after a feed, and can be sick anytime between feeds, but its generally only a little bit, and other than that he is happy in himself, and is always happy and settled after a feed.

But i really just needed to get this out, as i am absolutely frantic with worry. My little boy was sick last night at 8pm only a little bit, he was on his playmat, but he choked on it. I noticed pretty much immediately that he was sick, so picked him to comfort him, and he could hardly breath and was gasping for air, he went bright red, was dribbling and adopted a bit of a starfish position. I just panicked, and passed him to my husband saying he cant breathe, please help him. Hubby being the cool calm man that he is, sorted him out pretty much straight away, and he was crying within the minute, It took me about 10 to 15 mins to settle my little boy and then he nodded off for a quick nap, and woke up for his feed as expected, and has taken his feeds all as normal. I rang NHS direct and they advised that he sounded absolutely fine, but to take him to out of hours surgery to be sure, so we took him straight up, docs had no concern, they checked his chest and heart with stethascope and said all sounded healthy, and explained that babies can choke on their sick etc, which did put my mind at ease, as all sorts was going through my mind!

I just wanted to know if anyone else has or had experienced anything like this, and did your babies do similar to what i described above?

Secondly, i cant calm myself down, i am worrying so much about him, that i am checking him even more than before, and am fearful to let him out of my sight. I keep crying and am just so on edge.

Anyone that has any advice or previous experience please let me know!

Thank you

im due to have my baby tomorrow but not much happening anyone got any tips on how to bring labour on im really fed up!!!!

Hello everyone

I am 25 weeks pregnant and really enjoying my pregnancy. There is one thing I really despise though, the fact that everyone feels the need to tell me what to do, how to do it and if I don't have feel the same I'm wrong because this is my first child. It's really irritating because I have a little brother in law who my hubby and I have been looking after since he was 4months old. . . he is now 2 years old!! He may not be our biological son but we definately know how to provide for and look after a child, he is an absolute angel whan he is with us and is so well behaved.
Is it wierd that we are not too stressed about meeting our little girl and having to look after her? Is it wierd that I am not too stressed about the birth or will it change closer to my due date? I feel like I just need to off load and not think about how angry it makes me that people think I am clueless when it comes to caring for a child. Help
