Question on dehydration

[Guest guest]

Trisha came home from school yesterday ate just a bit and went to bed and

slept through the night and this morning she couldn't stay away when I woke her

for school so I kept her home. Turns out she has an ear infection and was a

little dehydrated. We've been pushing fluids all day and she is more perky

but now she wants to eat everything in sight one right after the other. I

keep telling her no and she gets so upset. She ate her dinner well and ever

since she has been wanting to eat non-stop. Would the dehydration do that or

the pedialyte? Just getting more fluids in her made such a big difference,

she never complained about her ear and she didn't run a fever. This wanting to

eat literally about every 5-10 mins is wearing me out having to deal with

her whining and crying each time I tell her no. She did manage to tell me to go

away when I told her no more eat and that was very clear. lol
