Don't take stress and go acc to ur child.

Accepted Answer

it is very common that during the illness the child will not take food.
give small amount of easily digestible food to the child
many times if you take the child in garden or open area that will cheer up the child and that might improve the appetite
give regular water and fluids to the child tso improve hydration because that will also improve appetite
you can give fruits as well as juices from the fruits which again acts as appetizer
during illness if the child stakes 60% to 70% of the diet then also it's fine
