Sick toddler

I feel so helpless. I don’t know what to do. My 2 years old daughter is getting over a cold and now currently has an ear infection. She’s on medications but she won’t eat and is barely drinking. She’s already a picky eater so it bothers me even more on whether she’s getting enough nutrients. Her pediatrician told me last week that she’s fine and blood works are okay too. She’s being lethargic and seems out of it. Is that normal when they are sick or I should bring her to the ER?

I would call the nurses line first, but you know your baby best, so if you feel you need to go, please do! Will she drink Pedisure or pedilyte?

I second trying the pedisure to get liquids and calories, nutrients isn't as important while sick as long as hydrated, else maybe some applesauce packets even juice if needed. I would say ER if high fever, difficulty breathing\weezing or symptoms getting worse not better.
