Unwell baby not eating at all

My little one has a viral cough and cold and also diarrhoea 🤦🏻‍♀️ thanks nursery!! She's pretty well in herself, which is great, and drinking water and her milk fine. She just will not eat anything at all! All she's had today is 1 fruit pouch, and that was half for lunch and half for dinner as she wouldn't eat it all in one go. I've offered basically everything in the house and she just either point blank refuses or will put it in her mouth and spit it out. Do I need to be worried or will she be alright with just her milk? Tempted to give her an extra bottle so at least she's got some nutrients from that!

Following.. on the same boat

We find when teething or poorly our girl just doesn’t fancy eating much at all, it usually rights itself in a couple of days. I personally don’t worry about it anymore as long as she’s okay in herself etc. when I don’t feel well I don’t want to eat either. Hope she gets better soon!

My LB is ill with the same... also has temp and sickness.. and it's been 5 weeks. I took him to the Dr's Thursday and she said he's picked up a secondary infection which is why he's still ill, however, so long as he's keeping up his fluid intake I shouldn't be worried about loss of appetite. If they start having dry nappies they could become dehydrated and that's when they would worry x

Yoghurt is our go to when he doesn’t want to eat
