yeah sounds like some sort of stomach bug/gastro bug.....that's a long time to go without food for a little person and little people go down hill very quickly remember. I would see a GP first thing tomorrow morning.
In the meantime, keep offering her water, juices, any fluids she will take down even lemonade!! Whatever she will have..... and keep offering food....perhaps some cut up pieces of apple or grapes??
What is her fluid intake like? If she is still drinking jsut keep the fluids going and keep trying with the food, let her pick at it until she regains her appetite. A trip to the Dr would be good as well if she hasn't improved. But if she stops drinking and starts showing signs of dehydration I would get her checked sooner rather than holding off.
When DD1 has been sick she drops food pretty quickly, but we can get some fluids into her except for about 12 months ago, where we tried for nearly 3 days and hardly got anything into her, and ended up dehydrated
Take care and I hope little Miss is feeling a lot better very soon xxoo
I agree with Beema IRT her drinking, if she is drinking I wouldn't stress too much. When they're sick they can go up to 5 days without food before you have to start "worrying" (I know the worry starts WAY before then though!). DS had gastro a couple of years ago where he just threw up and there was no runs.
I hope she's back to herself soon. If you think it's something else though hun, go with your gut. Mummy always knows best xoxox
thanks everyone! we have been on her case with drinking! LOL - we are getting water into her - even gave her some juice this morning and she had a whole popper!
Dinner was a little bit more sucessful and she had a couple mouthfuls of mashed potatoe, than i gave her some grapes which she ate!
I also brought her some multivitamins today - though maybe that would be a good idea since she isnt' eating!
I am going to ring the doctor tomorrow - Enchanted my gut says something is not right! and i agree mummy knows best! she isn't vomiting and no temp but something just isn't right!
Kirsty_lee - bugga bugga bugga! would of been fantastic to have met up with you!!!!
Glad she had something to eat and something sweet to drink to keep her sugars up.
Call them for sure then hun, if she's not getting worse it's a good sign though. Hopefully it's just a bug that will nick off VERY soon. Let us know how you go
