Hi S Suvvi! Don't panic. The child might loose her appetite till the time she is unwell. As she recovers it might improve. First and foremost, it's advisable to focus on the issue. Please consult her pediatrician and follow his advise. Give her light liquid or semi solid food depending on her acceptability. U will notice an increase in her acceptance for food as she feels better. Avoid force feeding. u could give light dalia or khichdi or milk as per her taste. I Wish her speedy recovery. Tkcare!

It is advisable not to give banana in cold and cough . U should avoid giving heavy food which will make her uncomfortable and uneasy. Wait for her to recover. Discontinuing regular diet for three/ four days won't affect her much but heavy food or force feeding can cause further aversion towards food. Hope this helps!

I would not advise u to give butter milk. U could still give coconut water at room temperature as it helps in replenishing lost fluids during fever. Just try and give two/three spoons initially,if she likes it u could give few spoons more after frequent breaks.
