DD's refusing to feed today - Heatwave?

DD (8mnths) has only the equivalent of one feed (formula) since 5am this morning.

Does anyone have any idea if it could be the heatwave? Started yesterday morning but she fed well during the night. Today has been worse than yesterday.

She has had a viral rash since Sunday but should be getting over it and seems fine otherwise.

Thanks

Is she eating other foods and drinking other fluids?

Not really. No solids and only a few sips of water.

you must keep trying to get fluids into her. i wouldn't worry about the food but keep going with the fluids.
when ds wasn't tkaing fluids i used a medicine syringe to squirt water into his mouth.try anything.
in this heat they dehydrate so quickly.
