Thanks, Michelle... And it's nice to hear that about Hawkesbury. I got a little disturbed when the doctor who saw us couldn't even call the right on-call paed! He's breathing fast, but not really struggling too much.
It seems the warmer I can keep him, the easier it is for him. He seemed so much better this morning when I got him out of our nice, warm bed (he's sleeping in with us overnight while unwell - we can hear any breathing issues and get to him much faster if he wakes up with a cough), but was sounding pretty awful once he'd taken as much of his bottle as he would tolerate this morning.
Is it ok to let him sleep if he wants to sleep longer, or should I be waking him to feed a bit more regularly? He's been drinking close to 240mL each bottle while well, but is sometimes struggling to get through 120mL with some feeds now. I'm offering less more often, but don't know whether to wake him for it or just wait...
