My 18 month son got sick almost a week ago. At first I thought it was from his top molars coming in and then we moved into the country where there’s a lot of dust so I thought maybe he might have allergies. But over the weekend he had a fever, his fever has subsided and I even took him to his pediatrician to have her look at him. Everything came back fine but it’s been like 5 days where my son won’t eat. All he wants is his bottle, every time I try to offer him food he pushes it away or he spits it out and he will only take his bottle. He’s not on regular milk he’s on a toddler transition milk, my son will not drink milk I’ve tried multiple ways, different cups even his pediatrician told me to put chocolate syrup in it doesn’t work.

I’m getting worried that he only wants his bottle and won’t eat regular food, is this something all toddlers do?

And then I feel bad because my son is 18 months old and he should be off the bottle altogether. Am I the only one that still has my 18-month-old and a bottle?
