Please o I have a problem

My son has been eating very well since last month. Suddenly since Friday he's been loosing appetite. He barely had any food on Friday. On Saturday he refused to eat any cereal or formula. He was on breast milk only and today it's the same thing. And even the breast sef he's not sucking much at a time.

He's not running temperature, he's playing as usual, but he's not eating.
He took 90mls of formula this morning and small breast milk
He's 8 months

It's a phase and will pass. Their appetite wax and wane. Meanwhile multivite syrup or Bco syrup can increase his appetite in the mean time.

Ok 2 things cos this happened to me the whole of yesterday and I was shocked cos my baby loves food
1. Has he pooed as usual? Turns out for me, he wasn't eating cos he hadn't pooed since friday. Did a big poo this morning and he's gulping his pap now
2. The twice my baby has had malaria rejecting food was the only symptom. No fever, playing as usual, just didn't eat

I suggest you try multivitamins as enque suggested but also take him to the hospital for a blood test

I agree with Soon.est, its a phase, he will soon outgrow it, af far as he is fine and not showing any signs of distress, he is good.

Mommy Zaynie, you are too gbaski joor. Make ah hear say I no collect. We have known each other for 5yrs now and all through he has never kept 5naira and I collect it. I have his atm pins too. But you see the moment I'm going to the market, odiegwu, Oga must top money ooo. It's already known fa, so we don't discuss it even. He will just go "oya take your apriko money" while I go "thank you Sir". Make ah hear say ino collect. Him go ffg me go hustle and bustle inside market ni? Odiegwu!

Giddyperson, just to encourage you more.
I wrote a 3-day professional exam when my baby was 5wks old in another state. I didn't know about breast pump and all then and I hadn't registered on nl, the only time I read and understand is at night. Was it easy? Mba! I remember running out of the exam hall with a security guy in tow to go br.eastfeed my baby, I was crying. Everyone except my mom advised me to defer the exam but my mom made me understand that the best time was then and I thank God I listened to her cos look at me now na lipsrsealed lipsrsealed, I don't even have energy to type on my phone cry. My result came out perfect. You don't know how strong and determined you can be until being strong and determined is all you've got left. You can do it!

OMG! Where did you get the similac nipples from ? I have been needing it like oxygen as my LO only accepts that nipple. I was using the microwave sterilizing unit with it but was advised to boil the bottles and nipples after she came down with an infection. Boiling it works well as they have withstood a year of rigorous use.

He's not distressed, he's sleeping longer. He only agreed to eat bread since he saw me touching the nylon. I gave him small with lots of water. And then he was back to breast milk. He did take 60mls of formula tonight before he slept

Okay... Good to hear.
Sorry I came late.
When next he refuses to eat try to give him something totally different. Sometimes they just need a change of taste.
That is after ruling out any kind of illness or discomfort.

I remember sometime ago when my DS lost appetite, all his favourite food plus drinks were all rejected, we took him to a Dr. who administered multi vitamin syrup for him, a after two days of taking the multivite he still didn't eat, we went back to the Dr. and then he asked us if he takes fruit and if he has a favourite among the fruit. We left hospital and bought Oranges and bananas which were his favourite. DS regained his appetite with the fruits, he rushed them like his life depended on the fruits.

I think it is a phase. His twin is also doing exactly the same as you have described. She is also not eating as usual and now sleeps at every opportunity. She's been pooping normally, plays well . I was a bit concerned too so I have started her on multivitamin. I pray it blows over soon
