I would really appreciate some advice.
My 14 month old is still breastfed - he refuses a bottle or a cup. He feeds to nap/sleep and a lot during the night.
Yesterday evening he started biting really hard and refusing to feed. He was totally exhausted but just screamed for hours, I tried rocking him, singing to him etc. I even got the other DC out of bed and went and bought a bottle incase that would work but had no luck. He eventually fell asleep after I wking him around the living room in the pushchair for an hour.
During the night he fed in his sleep as normal.
He is biting and refusing again this morning. He woke up at 5am and is tired and crying but just bites me. Again I've tried a bottle and a cup but he is refusing both.
He has 4 teeth on the top and 4 on the bottom. His top and bottom back teeth are half way through.
I'm really at a loss about what to do. He's sobbing his little heart out he's had some calpol incase it's teething pain but it's made no difference. I'm worried he might get dehydrated too, he's taken some liquid from a spoon but not much.
