My 4 year old got sent home from school today. He wouldn't eat breakfast and wouldn't eat lunch. Slight fever. Seems that he has the same bug that I had last week.
Is it best to just keep making sure he drinks water and not worry about him eating?
He asked for a sandwich but when he got to the table he wouldn't eat. Trying to stick with the BRAT foods but he doesn't want anything.
Any tips?

My moms a nurse and a lot of fluids are good and maybe crackers something light like that will work and Ginger ale always seems to help me when I feel sick! HTH a little anyway

Thanks, that does help. I just hope he doesn't lose 10 pounds like I did from this stupid bug. Poor kid, he loves food.

I'm a mom of 2 and when the kids aren't feeling well I think it's normal not to eat. As long as they stay hydrated I don't push food too much...I know they won't starve to death. They will eat when they are hungry and he's old enough to tell you when that is. By that's just how I feel

Re: Any moms out there?
what about pedilyte? or the pedilyte lollipops
my mom is a nurse and staying hydrated is the best things but the pedilyte will give his system so other nutrients also
