DS is 9 weeks and has been very off ....should I be concerned
Starting Sat night DS wasn't as routine as he always is with his sleeping and feeding. Sunday morning he was worse didn't want to nurse much maybe for like 10-15mins ( he usually nurses for 45) seemed uncomfortable and was on and off sleeping all day, nursing poorly and at 145 he had a big poop and immediately passed out after and slept till 430 when I finally woke him up to feed him. Even after that long stretch he didnt nurse well at all. Last night he passed out right after his bath which he NEVER does because I usually nurse him to sleep. He woke up at 4am and nurses well, woke up at 730 nursed well again by 830 he was out again. We have been out all day and I had to wake him at 1230 to nurse. He nursed for 10 mins and fell back to sleep.
He seems very stuffy and coughing a lot. He gagged a few times last night and puked in his sleep.
He got his shots on Friday and DS2 has croup and was given meds on Tueday night. Ds1 also has a cold which could be the croup virus or just a cold.
If you got this far thanks!
Should I call the dr?

Since your other boys are sick and DS is so young, I would call the Dr. Even if it turns out to be nothing, it will be worth the peace of mind to know he's ok. GL!

Based on what you wrote about your other son being sick, I would call the ped and bring him in. I wouldn't take the chance at this age.

I didn't take his temp but he really doesn't feel warm at all.
I think it's the combo too but I want to make sure he is getting enough BM to help fight whatever is going on

Re: DS is 9 weeks and has been very off ....should I be concerned
Definitely call. I've been told a baby not wanting to eat and being too sleepy are reasons to call. Also, DS had a fever at 8 weeks (they call anything over 100.4 rectally a fever from what I was told) and I didn't think he felt warm either. I check his temp becuase he was being very sleepy and not wanting to eat. I hope it's nothing but definitely call your ped.

Until I read the bottom I was going to say maybe just a growth spurt but after reading he is coughing, threw up AND. Other kids are sick, YES. I would call pediatrician!
Also I would take temp
