TIRed flags don’t look the same in every child. Irritability is one that’s easily missed, often mistaken for tantrums, tiredness or hunger by those who do not know our children like we do.
When my nephew Ziggi became unwell, Rach was told it was normal. But she knew that wasn’t right.
Ziggi doesn’t present like a typical child when he’s unwell. And his irritability didn’t match his baseline, so she chose to escalate.
It was later confirmed he was so unwell as a result of influenza, he had also become very dehydrated and required a nasogastric tube.
Knowing the red flags and your child’s baseline can change the pathway of escalation.
Because truly, nobody knows your child like you 🫶
