Sorry not been on recently, I've been back in hospital with Damien.
On Monday night he stopped breathing and we had to call an ambulance. Turns out the poor thing had Bronciolitus (the doctor's had told us TWICE the same day during the day that it was nothing and his chest was clear). I'd taken him docs in the morning as he hadn't been too bright over the weekend, but I wasn't happy with the diagnosis of 'nothing is wrong'.
Later in the day he was sick up a whole bottle (he is sick with his reflux but not normally this bad) and he started to shake for about 30seconds. So I took him to see another doctor that afternoon and he checked him over top to toe and said it sounds like it could be a tummy bug which made him sick, but as he sounded snuffly just keep an eye on him and come back later in the week if he isn't better. He said his chest was clear.
We'd been home about 3 hours and Damien had just got more and more snuffly and started to cry and scream and would not be put down. Mark went to make him a bottle to try and calm him as we thought he must be hungry. But while he was sat on my lap he stopped breathing went limp and started to go blue roud his lips and eyes.
When we got to hospital it was diagnosed that he had Bronciolitus. They said he must have brought up sick, but because he couldnt breathe through his nose due of the Bronciolitus, he'd choked and stopped breathing.
He is doing okie now and back home on some proper medication for his reflux (about bloomin' time) and instructions on how to resuscitate him if he does it again. We live a fair way from the hospital so it would take an ambulance a long time to get here. He is still snuffly and will probably have the Bronciolitus for a bit longer before it passes properly. He is going to be on his reflux medinces until he is at least a toddler
So I've had a $hite past couople of days and no sleep. I'm just glad he was on my lap when he stopped breathing and not in his moses basket
