My ds is 5 months and is starting to teethe. The problem is that I can't get him to drink his bottle! I have tried mixing a rusk with his milk as he usually loves that but he won't have that either. He really needs to drink some water and I can't even get him to drink. He's not even taking the breast which is highly unusual! A little while ago he did a poo but it was really thick and dark. He really struggled to get it out and it was upsetting him. He hasn't pooed for a couple of days! I can only get him to eat a couple of spoons of the rusk and milk and then he screams. I've tried calpol and bonjela. I'm really worried about him now cause he hasn't had a full bottle for almost a week now.
does anyone have any ideas of how I can get him to drink or eat? I feel so sorry for him he's so unhappy!
