hungry but refusing food and crying - any ideas?

[NinaGE]

hi...my lo is 10weeks old tomorrow. up until now he's been a good eater and fed every 3hrs but the last couple of days he showing the hunger cues but when you offer him the bottle he starts to cry and won't have it. he will eventually have some but this will take a couple of hours. he'll then nod off for a bit and then start with the hunger cues. he doesn't have a temperature. I'm at a loss really. any help would be greatly appreciated

Sore throat?

I wouldn't be surprised with all the crying he's been doing! my mum thought he sounded a bit rattly whatever that means...don't how do you tell. he doesn't appear to have swollen glands.

I'd be tempted to try a dose of calpop, give it 20 minutes then try a feed tonight.

Then a trip to the GP tomorrow. Not that I'm suggesting there's anything to worry about but that's what they're there for.

Calpol not calpop

thanks will give the calpol a go...was going to call the gps tomorrow. its been at least two days since I last called them they'll be missing me!
