Brooke is 8 months old.

She is not eating well. She is pooing after every meal and bottle and generally spills after having a bottle sometime nearly the whole bottle comes back up.
She has very red blotchy cheecks and has just got two teeth though (two days apart).
She is still quite happy though and it has only been happening for maybe just over a week.

Any ideas??

Didn't want to read and run. Because she is happy it would usually be said that nothing was really wrong. But then personally I would be a little, not worried, maybe cautious. It sounds like ti could be a bit more than teething. If it was me I would at least ring HealthLine, if not just pop up to the doctor just to double check.

Does she have a temperature? - does she normally poo after every meal? - if not could be a tummy bug- so just make sure she is well hydrated - but if she seems happy just keep an eye on her.

Is the pooing and the spilling new?
How's her weight?

Teething often explains lots of weird symptoms, but my rule is if I'm worried, get it checked (hence an hour at the dr this morning for similar symptoms). Doctor is usually free and it's worth putting your mind at ease.

First, I'd suggest ringing health line - they are really good when you're just wanting to check something out (usually to confirm if your gut instinct is right) and it means you don't have to wait for a drs appointment and don't have to bundle all your kids in!

Every baby is different. Doctor's will tell you if they are happy then they aren't sick but I've seen Dominic laughing and gurgling with a 42 degree temp. So if you are concerned then ring healthline or take her to the doctor even if it turns out only to be for peace of mind. At least you won't be worrying.
