Baby Symptom Checker

test-abscds

Before we get started

The Baby Symptom Checker is designed for parents of babies and infants less than 12 months old who are experiencing digestive, feeding or crying-related symptoms. It can offer practical advice and support, but is not a medical diagnosis tool and is not intended to replace professional advice from your Pharmacist, GP or Health Visitor.

Before we start, it's important that you read the list below carefully, to check if your baby is experiencing any of these symptoms that can indicate something more serious or requiring more urgent care.

  • Your doctor/health visitor has expressed concern that your baby has stopped growing/putting on weight
  • Vomiting forcefully or retching
  • Breathing difficulties
  • Abnormal body spasms
  • A fever
  • A change to how your baby feels when you hold them, e.g. they stiffen or go floppy
  • More sleepy than usual, unresponsive, difficult to keep awake or not wanting to feed
  • Blood or yellow liquid in their vomit
  • A significant amount of blood in their poo
  • Sudden swelling or a puffy face, or pale/mottled/ashen/blue skin
  • A rash that doesn't fade if you press it with a glass
  • Underlying medical conditions or is currently being treated for another illness
