What causes formula feed and drinking water refusal?
Patient: Hello doctor.. My daughter completed 10 months this 6th.. She used to drink (70 to 90 ml per feed) her formula 4 times a day. I give her formula when she naps in day/sleeps at night. Suddenly she stopped drinking all of a sudden totally. She loved water.. Even refuses that now. Not any new teething... Herurine amount is lesser than normal... Doctor: Hi...unless she is dehydrated you need not worry. Activity is more important than anything else. I suggest you observe for another 2 days and if the urine output is gradually coming down or if she is dull and lethargic, I suggest you take her to the pediatrician.regards - Dr. Sumanth
