Last night saw us rushing to A&E as Alexander, aged 14 months experienced episodes where he was struggling for breath. As you can imagine, it was an alarming, stressful time for my husband and I. Alexander had already been seen twice by the GP yesterday, once in the morning with a 39.9 degree temperature and then at 5pm with worsening flu like symptoms.
So at 10 months old in the UK, your baby gets reviewed by a health visitor and today was Alexander's turn to 'perform', be weighed in those funny sink shaped scales every baby hates and measured as flat as a wriggling baby could be!
