What should i do if my toddler has slight fever and has no appetite?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Fluids: When toddlers get sick, one of the first things to go can be appetite. The will be fine for a few days without much food. However, they need to have fluids. Push fluid in whatever form they want for a few days, keeping in mind to avoid any caffeine (as that will dull appetite further and dehydrate) and not lots of high sugar drinks (as that can cause diarrhea). Try a milkshake - most kids love!
