    Weird!!! I did call 13health and they said that aslong as she isnt dehydrated its ok to wait till monday to go to the docs, but she didnt really have answers either!!! DD2 is coughing lots too and still full of cold.

    She just did another dirty nappy, basically water and mucus!!! YUCK. not sure which one was worse!?

    Hope your DS gets better soon.

    It sounds like the is swallowing a lot of mucous, hence the mucousy nappies and the vomiting. If the nurse is happy for you to wait until Monday then it's probably fine, but as with anything if the symptoms get worse or she seems dehydrated then take her to ED. As an aside, you could try giving her hydralite or something like it just so she is stocking up on electrolytes as well as fluids.

    It is weird! I called them too and they said to get ds2 seen within 12 hours. Maybe because he's under 1? He's not showing any signs of dehydration and he did drink 60mls of hydrolyte for me. He's off food but wants his bottles.

    Yuck for the poo! Mucous is definately worse. I hope you all get better soon xxx
