Babies have a higher risk of meningitis than any other age group. Please be aware about the symptoms. There is more information, including the Meningitis Baby Watch leaflet, on the Meningitis Research Foundation website.
Knowing what to do when your child is unwell, is important. It won’t stop you worrying – and you know your child better than anyone else, but knowing who to contact and when, will help you manage your child’s illnesses with more confidence. Read more about common childhood illnesses in the NHS guide below.
