Looks lik the baby is dehydrated. U need to increase fluid intake by providing more breast milk and also water to the baby. Try home made fresh juice if baby likes and also try to keep favorable temperature of room. Avoid excess of heat exposure to baby.

monitor the hydration status by checking oral intake and urine output(5-6 times a dag), along with the activity of the baby.
