Help,10mo not eating

Frantastic

Please help my kid doesn't want to eat. He's 10 months and for the last 3 days he no longer will eat solids. Normally, he has a good appetite but now he won't even eat Graham crackers, his favorite. I know he's teething and getting new ones but that hasn't stopped him from eating before. I'm starting to really worry, I mean he won't even eat baby food. I don't want to force him to eat but he needs more than just formula right now... right?

He doesn't technically need more than formula until about a year, maybe he's just not feeling well from the teething. Maybe give him a break for a few days & try again.

Try letting him Feed himself. My 10 month old goes through spells where she refuses to eat unless I let her do it herself.

Thanks ladies. I'll try letting him feed himself. It just seems so weird him not eating, it's stressing me out.

Like @wilsomom said, technically he doesn't need anymore than his formula. So I wouldn't worry to much!

My daughter does that when she is getting top teeth. She will only eat cheerios, formula and water. The formula has all the nutrients they need technically...from what I understand. If it lasts longer than a week or so, maybe give the dr a call.

Thanks ladies, I ended up taking him to the Pediatrician and she said there was nothing wrong with him. He's just teething and grumpy. I should have just checked my account and taken your advice.
