Part 1 with Dr Kailey Buller, Emergency Physician, Labour and Delivery Doctor.

Today’s episode might genuinely be one of the most important conversations we’ve ever had on The Best For Baby Podcast.

If you’ve ever sat awake at night wondering…

Is this normal?
Should I take my baby to A&E?
Am I overreacting — or missing something serious?

…then this episode is for you.

I’m joined by emergency physician, family doctor, labour and delivery specialist — and mum, Dr. Kailey Buller, who spends her working life caring for sick babies, worried parents, and newborn emergencies.

And today she’s breaking down, in the clearest and most reassuring way I’ve ever heard:

• The real signs parents should never ignore
• What doctors actually look for in emergency departments
• And how to know when your instincts are right

This episode will honestly make you feel calmer, more confident, and far more prepared as a parent.

Let’s dive in... When should you take your baby to A&E?

Dr. Buller shares the hospital ABC's doctors actually use to assess babies in emergencies, helping parents understand when to monitor at home and when to seek urgent medical care.

In Part 1 we cover:

✔️ Fever rules every parent should know (especially under 3 months)
✔️ Signs your baby is struggling to breathe
✔️ Dehydration red flags most parents miss
✔️ Head bumps: what’s actually dangerous vs normal toddler accidents
✔️ Vomiting and when it becomes serious
✔️ How to safely hydrate a sick baby at home ✔️ Top tips for constipation and what's normal

This episode is packed with calm, practical advice you’ll want to save and share.
