poor little sausage, jacob must be feeling rotten.

lani has had a few temps in the last six months courtesy of ds bringing home stuff from kinder

when lani is unwell she just likes to sleep and have cuddles and doesn't eat anything or hardly drink - so i feel for you

i was going to suggest icy poles like the cool pop things - maybe leave them out on the bench for a while so they are not so cold - he may like the slush. how about those little boxes of juice, i give lani the golden circle ones as they are 50/50 water and juice. you could also try giving jacob a wet face washer and let him suck on it, or wrap a few ice blocks in it and let him hold it and have a suck.

what about jelly - i seem to make heaps and heaps of jelly when the kiddies are unwell and also homemade soup, i know it's hot but i remember as a kid soup and jelly made me feel better. or even some ice cream (i microwave ice cream for a little bit before i eat it so it's not to cold)

kiddies bounce back very quickly, you will probably find jacob's temp will be down tommorrow and he will slowly get his appetite back.

good luck and hugs for jacob
