My pediatrician is closed.... No answers now....
I was breast feeding My 2 month old, he was screaming and crying.
I gave him a bottle and he was gagging with every sip. I tried holding him upright, didn't help....
Tried getting drop by drop into his mouth, didn't help. Still gagging...
Never happened before....
IDK what to do....
Dr closed, don't think it's a valid reason to run to the emergency....

Doesn’t your doctor have an answering service with a doctor on call that you could speak to on the phone? I never heard of a pediatrician that doesn’t have an answering service who gives a message to the doctor on call and the doctor calls you back immediately.

Doesn’t your pediatrician have an on call number so they can be paged?

Call your doctor. If they don't have answering service find another pediatrician asap.

Your ped should have some sort of answering service. Keep calling and wait until something picks up.
Could be just a full tummy/ consipated. Try bicycling his legs while you wait.

Do you live in NY? There are many medical care centers that are open to everyone. I'm sure they have these care centers in different states as well.

How long has this been going on for? Try not feeding him for another while.
Maybe go to urgent care, just because it's erev shabbos.
