My almost 10 month old refuses food and formula. Help please!

newbee36

He used to do 28-30 oz formula per day and 8ish oz of solids per day. For the past week he has been doing just around 20 oz formula and no more then 5 oz of solids per day. I am really worried. I know their appetite fluctuates, but it has been this bad for over a week now. Any other babies doing this? Any advice? 

TIA

Looks like his top teeth are about to cut the gums. That was my first thought, but I am starting to worry since it has been over a week now.

Is he fussy? Having enough diapers?

My Lo wont even open his mouth when he is teething..He goes back  to his normal drinking after the tooth breaks through.

I agree with previous posters, it's probably teething. My son (9 months) loves frozen fruit, usually sliced peaches or mango in the mesh bag. Here's a link to the one we have on amazon

The number of wet diapers would be the first thing I would look at.  Sometimes DD is like this...just doesn't want any milk...she will drink some water though. She used to be on the higher end of 20 oz...for the last month of so it's more around 20-24 oz.

Thank you all for your feedback. Yeah it is teething. He even got fever yesterday and he is obviously unconfortable. He has less wet diapers then usual, but still poops every day.

My daughter started fluctuating on her food the past two week's and I noticed yesterday that she went from 2 1/2 teeth to eight teeth four on the bottom and four on top.
