It was mother’s instinct that told Rebecca Wanosik there something was wrong with her three-week-old baby daughter, Zeydn.
“I had her propped on my shoulder to burp her and I could feel her ribs popping,” Rebecca tells Mamamia. “The best way that I can describe it would be a similar feeling and sound to cracking or popping your knuckles.”
Right away Rebecca addressed the concern with her midwife, who told her it was nothing to worry about. But as a mother of four other children, Rebecca’s gut told her otherwise and she went out of her way to raise it with her paediatrician.
Again she was told to stop worrying.
A few weeks later, Rebecca saw two of her older children on to the school bus.
