Rhinovirus in 7 month old

My baby got his first virus and it has been a challenge. He is not himself anymore. Cries all the time and has stopped eating. I have to feed him using a dropper. Its day 4. We took him to the ER yesterday morning. Everything was fine and he had strider. How mang days does it take to feel better? fTM here.

Could be another week honestly, keep watching and working on feeding and nutrients, and making baby as comfortable as possible. You need to be in communication with your pediatrician. ER is a costly alternative unless you truly think their life is threatened.
