    Not eating... very worried

    Okay so on thursday we went to Australia Zoo, had a fantastic time, Miss B didn't eat much, but we tried to keep water intake up.
    We got home, went for a swim and than around 5pm in the arvo she vomited, ended up vomiting 5 times that night, we thought maybe dehydration.

    Since than she has hardly eaten anything, and that is so unusual for her, she is always asking to eat something. She won't even eat a ice block, but has picked at a few things but nothing substantial!

    She also did her first poo in 4days yesterday, but i put that down to toilet training and still being scared of doing a poo on the toilet!

    Should i be worried that she isn't eating? otherwise she seems fine!

    when ever Ive taken the kids to the doctors about not eating they have always just said "as long as they are drinking they will be fine" but its always reasuring to have them check things anyways

    Sounds like gastro. loss of appetite, vomiting..
    Just try to keep up the fluids, see what doctor says.
    hope lil one feels better soon!!

    You can get probiotics in a powder form that you can add to milk or whatever they will drink. Also try a multi vitamin with iorn as low iorn levels can decrease their appetite.
