10 month old refuses to nurse and won't take formula

Hi, this is the first time I've posted and I've not found a similar thread so apologies if this has already been discussed.
Just wanted to know if anyone has had anything similar? My almost 10month old boy only nurses in the evening and morning as I'm at work during the day - he doesn't bother with milk in the day as he never took to a bottle but a few days ago he just refused his bedtime feed and has refused to nurse for three days now, in fact he screams if I try and feed him. He eats plenty of food and drinks water although I'm concerned he's not getting as many fluids as he should but apart from that he's really happy it's just he's refusing any boob or formula, I'm aware the guideline are that they have formula or breast milk until 12 months but I can't get either in him - should I be giving him a vitamin supplement instead??

What if he has cereal does he take milk then?

My Dr friend said this happened to her and she just made sure they got their calcium in other ways e.g. Yoghurt, cheese etc. Best to ask Hv what they think as well. Good luck!
