But please, please, don't give them flat coca cola. We see it a lot, and it actually dehydrates them further as well as upsetting their electrolyte balance. Coca cola is a drink for adults who don't mind the effects of caffiene and sugar, not for children.
Don't worry, my kids never get coke. Ever. I am close to addicted to it. Weaning at present, but I know how unhealthy it is & they know its not for them.

Thanks for your input. It does make a bit more sense.

Thanks everyone.

BTW I am trying to give shorter feeds more often, but he's stubborn.
I think we are doing ok so far though. With the dehydration. I'm more worried about the sound of his chest now.

Bloody kids!
