Unwell baby

My little boy has fallen unwell. Bit of a cough and vomiting. He had date porridge for breakfast, just over half of what he usually eats. Refused to have lunch but ate greek yoghurt with fruit. I tried offering him a meal again but he didn't want it and had half an orange instead. Is it okay for him to not have proper meals like he did today? I'm going to try again tomorrow. He does usually eat very well. He's had two bottles of 6 oz so far today. I'll be offering him a bottle again now.

I would just offer an extra bottle this is what I do when mines under the weather or not eaten his full meal x

Hmm my little girl also not eaten her usual amount today. Not sure is she under the weather or teething, will offer more bottles and see how she takes it tomorrow...

@Elena @Sharon Thank you. Hoping tomorrow is a better day 🙏

Yeah it’s fine, my little one has been poorly and they just lose they appetite a bit like adults so. Just keep offering and giving bottles. They will eat when they are hungry. Remember milk is still their main source of food. We had to take my little girl hospital cause of the flu and they said not to worry. They will eat again when they are better which she has and she is now actually eating more then before x

I would just offer, if they don’t take it then fine as long as little one is taking their milk. Food is not their main source of nutrition until over 1 so I wouldn’t worry. My boys been poorly since Christmas and is having food and bad days but as long as he has his milk and over half of his normal wet nappies I’m not worried xx
