Food poisoning due to expired breastmilk
3.5 months baby. Accidentally drank breastmilk left in bottle overnight in room temperature which he had taken few sips at night before sleep.
At Morning again fresh milk was collected in another bottle, but during feeding, was accidentally given wrong bottle.
This expired milk scenario was on 20th morning.
That day he was normal. At evening he pooped. He had already pooped that day morning before taking milk. Previously, normally he used to poop once in 2-4 days.
Again at night he pooped. Next day on 21st he pooped once. On 22 nd he pooped 4-5 times. On 23rd pooped once. On 24th today he had pooped twice.
The poop is semi liquid seedy type, not fully liquid. Normally he did once in 2-3 days ,thick paste type.
No fever till now thankfully, no vomiting. Baby is normal. Just feel like taking feed little lesser than before. Little cranky than before sometimes. Rest urine is absolutely normal. Baby is playing and cooing. That are ok.
Will it get ok on its own or medicine required?

Not drinking milk
My baby is 2 months 10 days old and is on exclusive formula feeding because I am not able to breastfeed. For the last more than one week, he has not been drinking his milk properly.
Even after 5 hours since his last feed, he does not seem hungry. Whenever we try to feed him with the bottle, he starts crying badly and refuses to drink. He does not have a fever, diarrhea, or any other obvious illness.
His birth weight was 2.7 kg, and at 10 weeks he weighs 4.7 kg.
At present, we are somehow feeding him with a dropper because he is refusing the milk
Could you please suggest what could be the possible reason and what we should do?
