Refusing feeds - teething?

Question

My son shows classic signs of teething - has for months now. But lately he will refuse a bottle or a nursing session at least once a day. Tylenol does seem to resolve the issue, but I’m wondering if anyone else is experiencing this? So frustrating and then he is sleeping poorly too.

Answer

Make sure it’s not due to acid reflux. Sometimes that can be the culprit although reflux tends to wane by about 6 months

Answer

We only nurse when he wakes up at night...but he has gone from 5oz bottles to only eating 2-3oz per bottle. He seems to be acting fine so I’m hoping it will pass and it could just be teething! He already has his bottom two

Answer

Maybe try a bigger nipple size for a bottle? I have no other remotely helpful advice beyond this

Answer

Yeah I struggle with that too. But not crying so I didn’t think to do the medicine . Good idea .
