Sickness bug

Anyone else's house been struck with the sickness bug?

Me and DS had it for 12 hours but DD who's just turned 1 is taking the brunt and into her 4th day.

Off her food not interested in milk, managing sips of water.

Is there a point I need to get advise? How long without food is safe?
She managed a quarter of a banana before which is the first thing since Wed and wasn't long before it was brought up.

She's pretty perky inbetween but clingy.

I wouldn't worry about food unless she's really fatigued and listless. Keeping her hydrated in the main thing. If she's perky and alert then I wouldn't worry too much at this stage. But keep an eye as they can deteriorate quickly. They can also recover quickly too. Hopefully it's the latter for you.
