Give baby some time to fully recover and this issue that u are stressed with will disappear. In the meantime, just let her eat whatever （the healthy and less heavy kind) she wants - maybe can also try to give the foods that she likes. Eat a smaller amount is ok, don't need to force. At most just drink milk to make up for it later. Most babies a few days of not eating well is ok for them - as long as not dehydrated so still need to take milk and water

Hi, drinking fresh milk is an interesting alternative for her. Maybe u can try to mix the food up a little too. Observe for abt a wk as if teething and teething is breaking through, it will take abt 1-2 wks(depends on baby). As long as her pee not too concentrated, she is still pooing (not too hard for her) and she is active, I think u can just continue to keep encouraging and try to feed her. If after still no good, then u could consider the doctor?
