Are you talking like milk formula? If so why is your 2 yr old still on formula? They should be started on milk at one year!
If you are talking medicine....then you should ask your pharmacy to flavor his medication! I believe there may be an additional charge but it is well worth it!

Why is he still on formula? If you mean meds go to the pahrmacy and get one of those syringe type medicine dispensers. It looks like a yringe w/out the needle. Fill your meds into the syringe and pull back one corner of his mouth and inject the medicine a little at a time in the corner of his mouth. He will not get chocked if you do a little at a time. He will have no choice but to swallow it. It works everytime w/ my son!

She's probably just recovering from her illness and needs the extra rest right now. Just keep and eye out to make sure she isn't limp or lethargic, and if she isn't eating much, at least make sure she is taking in fluids. If there is not change in a couple of days, you might want to check back in with the doctor to see if you should bring her in again.

At two there is no way he should be on formula still, homogenized milk is what he should be drinking. But when he is really sick, stuffy and coughing, he should be drinking alot of juice and water, milk will not help him get better, it makes little ones more mucusy

if you mean baby formula your 2 year old should not be on that. If you mean liquid meds you can mix them with apple sauce p[udding or small amount of juice.

Mix the meds in with a sweet snack like pudding or applesauce.

Is it green? It might have turned into a sinus infection or bronchitis. I would take him to the doctors on Monday and have them check him out.
