9 m/o refusing bottle

DS is 9 months old and has always been a great eater. Recently he's been preferring solids to the bottle, but has still been taking 20-25oz of formula per day. Over the last week or so, it's become less and less, though, and he's been taking about 18oz per day. Well, yesterday he only took 11 oz and that was a STRUGGLE. He never took more than 4 oz and his last bottle of the day was at 3:30pm where he only took 1 oz. He usually takes 8 oz before bed and last night he wouldn't even take a sip. He sttn and at 7am only took 3 oz instead of his normal 6oz.

Anyone have any ideas? A tooth broke through on Wed so I thought that was the issue last week but he doesn't seem to have any more budding teeth at the moment. He seems perfectly happy and not sick. Should I be worried? Any ideas how to get the formula into him?

TIA!

I wouldn't worry. DS had plenty of days he didn't drink as much. As long as it didnt go on for a long stretch. A few days IMO isn't a worry

Ds is almost 8 months and goes through periods like this. I dont get worried. As long as it isn't lasting weeks.

I am pretty sure my DS would eat a cheeseburger if we let him. Chat Icon
