Just Need Advice- 3 Month Old Might Be Sick?

take her to the doctor, don't second guess it. Don't give cereal yet...she's too young, and at this age their digestive system is too immature and their internal organs are not fully developed yet.

Yes, a baby can be sick, even with no fever. Or sometimes there is fever and no other symptoms.

You just need to take her to the doctor.It is not only her appetite... she has other symptoms too. Tell your Doctor all of them. Also, as a baby develops their sleep patterns do change, especially at growth spurts and developmental changes where they get hungrier and need to feed more and are gaining alertness and in cognitive/physical skills. Sleep patterns are not static in babies...they will change.

A good book is "What To Expect The First Year" by Arlene Eisenberg. I referred to it all the time with my first baby.

All the best,

Take her to the doctor, it is worth your peace of mind.

i would say that most likely shes teething (my daughter did that too at her age). it also could be an ear infection. i would get her checked out just for your peace of mind. we also started our daughter on rice cereal about that age also because she was showing the signs of being ready. good luck!

Hi T., she may just be teething, but for peace of mind, I think you are right about calling her ped. When your baby is sick it is the most frustrating things sometimes, cause you just want to make every better right now. No Fever, I say, good sign. I pray all is well with your little girl. J.

Hi T.,

Well I honestly don't have any advice as to what might be wrong. I say if she doesn't start eating more in a couple of days definately go see Dr.
Wish I could be more of a help!
Good Luck and I hope she feels better soon.
