My 1 year old has fever of 100.8 what drinks and food should i give him instead of milk?
2 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Clear fluids!: Gingerale, soup (chicken), jello-these are all good and are unlikely to cause stomach issues with fever! plenty of water!

Why avoid milk ?: Milk is a comfort food for most 1yo and i see no reason to with hold it during fever. If s/he is vomiting or otherwise having digestive issues, i might omit it for a while, but not for long.
