Not sure what to do about ds (9 months).
He has a cold - snuffly and coughy and a bit wheezy. He's had gunky eyes but that cleared up with drops. Since Thursday he has been spiking quite high temps (39 or 40) and we've been giving him nurofen/paracetamol to keep it down. He is extremely whingy until the drugs kick in and then happy as usual.
He's not at all interested in food but drinking reasonable amounts of formula (not quite as much as usual). His poo is green and runny. Today I noticed his nappies are pretty dry (cloth nappies so easy to tell). Not totally dry though. Fontanel not sunken in.
Do I keep giving him the nurofen and letting him have lots of milk and wait for him to get over it? Or should I take him to the docs tomorrow? Or even panic now?
