My DD2 is 7 months and was admitted to hosy on Mon with bronchialitis. As it is viral there is very little they could do for her except to try and help her breath and comfotable etc. She spent 3 days on oxygen and was just monitored closely. We came home yesterday afternoon and in herself she is alot better. Obviously from been unwell she has not had much interest in food/milk but i am starting to worry about how much is too little. In hosy i stuggled to get anything into her and was averaging about 200-300ml a day. She normally has 5 bottles of 200mls a day but today has had only 180mls since 10pm last night. Yesterday she had a total of 250mls. Her nappies are damp but not very full at all so i am really worried about dehydration. As i said in herself she seems happy enough etc so i dont know if i should be concerned. Should i be expecting her to drink more? she will drink 30-40 mls at a time then refuse outright to have anymore. I have tried giving 5 mls at a time via suringe and she just spits it back at me. Any advice?
TIA Hoody
