A. Fluid(Breastmilk/formual milk/cow milk) intake is significant during the fever for fast recovery. Loss of appetite will be their during fever..so keep offering different foods that your baby likes. don't force feed. Give your baby small meals with high calories, high dense, high protein diet at regular intervals. The food should be warm, less spicy, semi-solid and soft Give Warm soups which you preffer, boiled vegetables like carrot, beans, pumpkin. Fruits like banana(if cold,cough is not associated), apple, pomogranate juice, sweet lime juice, avcado, pear. Give oats, roti, daliya, Daal-khichdi adding some ghee.
