We would like to share a story about Baby B. Baby B died at only 11 days of age from #neonatalHSV and we have been working closely with her family to improve awareness in our trust. [1/16] 
Baby B is her parent’s first baby. Born following an uncomplicated pregnancy, with no risk factors for infection and discharged home within a few hours. She was reviewed on day 5 by the midwife. She had lost 12% of her birthweight and was referred into hospital for review. [2/16]
Baby B had been bottle fed from birth. She was managing 30-60mls but it took a long time. Parents commented she was sleeping 90% of the time and she slept through her ED examination. There was no fever, no rash and (apart from breathing quickly) her examination was normal. [3/16]
