Pediatrician, Pulmonology 's  Response
Hi....this could be an initial stage of starting of sepsis in such a tender age. Usually refusal feeds and feed intolerance are first and foremost symptoms of sepsis in this age group. I suggest you take the baby to a physician or Pediatrician and get the baby checked once.
