Hi there!
Glad your baby is eating a little cracker anyway!
First let me say we all understand and we are here for you;)
As for seizures, my Lexxi had seizures, cluster seizures, meaning she didn't stop! Almost always resulted in hospitalization :( But I always read and was told, that having a seizure was like us running a marathon-it takes that much out of them. They generally are very thirsty and hungry afterwards, so :confused:
But with your baby having something else going on, an infections, it could be that he simply doesnt feel good...
I think the nutrical is a good idea, or karo syrup will do the trick.
Also, right after a seizure, when they can safely swallow, (tho hopefully this was a fluke and you'll never have to deal with this again!) it is good to give them a small amount of all natural vanilla ice cream! Like Bryers. This boosts their sugar but the fat in the ice cream makes it so the sugar releases slowly-no sugar high and then a low.
Again, there are some great suggestions already for food....I might try liverwurst too. I never even knew what it was till a couple weeks ago :p But I swear to you its been a life saver in my house!!! I have some finicky eaters here, and so far, this has worked every single time! I'm out of it right now and Vixxen won't eat...she's in one of her moods so I'm off to the store to get some!! It's magic!
Anyway, wishing your Buddy a speedy recovery and NO MORE SEIZURES!! They are the worst...for his family moreso than him I think. Remember, a seizure doesn't hurt when they have one - but you should be sure they can't konk their head on something hard, or tile floor or what have you.....
We're here if you need anything!
