In need of advice! I have an 8 month old who is refusing to drink bottles at daycare. He was refusing to nurse during the day but is now nursing before naps and every 2-3 hours during the night. We have tried withholding solids because he loves food, different nipple, different bottle, different temperatures, and nothing is working. He will take a couple ounces in his straw cup during meals but sometimes won’t even do that for daycare. In 9 hours he is getting maybe 7 ounces. He is still having recommended amount of wet diapers. His ears have been checked and are fine, so is his nose. The only thing is he is teething but has been since 5 months, and he has been slowly taking less and less from bottles for maybe 2 months. He will start drinking fast at first and after 10-30 seconds refuses to take more and will start crying and shoving it away. I don’t know what else to do.
