My son always eats less when sick - usually takes 25 or so oz a day and when sick he sometimes takes 20 and also refuses solids sometimes.</p> <p>Mine makes up for it after. He had a few off days last week but the past few days has eaten 30-34 oz of formula per day, plus solids. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/babies-eating-less-while-sick#post-534588 Tue, 29 Jan 2013 15:16:23 +0000 cascademom 534588@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>When my LO is sick, he eats less. When we had a well visit, his weight went down a bit. He's caught up since, but it happens. Also when he was sick, he only wanted boob, not expressed milk in a bottle, so he was extra clingy. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/babies-eating-less-while-sick#post-534582 Tue, 29 Jan 2013 15:14:09 +0000 Running Elley 534582@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Since Elliot has been sick he's been eating quite a bit less than normal. I think part of it is because he's stuffy and can barely breathe through his nose. He usually eats 4-5oz and for the past day or 2 it's been closer to 2 :(</p> <p>Will he catch up when he gets better? </p>
