Hi,

As the diarrhea frequency has being under control and vomiting is stopped, there is nothing to worry at present. Continue hydration of the child with oral re-hydration salt, light diet, organic fresh fruits and finish the dose of medications. Sometimes normal appetite return takes time once the infection is total under control.

Thank you.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
