In infants it is likely due to some viral infection. Just ensure adequate hydration, start zinc, probiotics and consult a pediatrician for detailed evaluation and management.
It may be because of viral infection. It will settle within a week. Try sporolac GG 1 sachet / day x 5-7 days. Continue breastfeeding. Monitor urine output, it should be atleast 6-7 times a day. Add SYP zinc (5ml/20mg) 5ml once a day for 2 weeks.

1. Baby refusing feeds
2. Baby being lethargic
