DS started screaming crying this afternoon out of nowhere...

I gave him his afternoon bottle. He had 7 ounces. Then I always burp him after a bottle. Yes I know i'm crazy for still doing it at 11 months but he spits up still sometimes. Anyways I went to burp him and he starts screaming crying. He has never done it before. So I stopped immediately. I thought he was going to vomit because he acts like this when he feels like vomitting after a bottle or solids, it's usually an indicator that he's about to throw up. So I grabbed towels just in case. I brought him out by the kitchen sink. He never threw up. So I sat him down in his booster seat put the tray on and it has stuff he can touch and play with and he started playing with that. He seemed to calm down. So I was nervous and wasn't sure if I should feed him his solids cuz I thought maybe his tummy was bothering him. I took a chance and fed him. He ate. He got cranky towards the end of the feeding so since he had very little left I stopped feeding him. Then I let him crawl around and he was fine.

Still don't know what it was that made him flip... Maybe's teething and a sharp pain in the mouth hit him hard?????????

Hopefully we won't have this episode tonight. My mom is watching him while DH and I go to his cousin's wake.

Sounds like he didn't want to be held to be burped. Let me tell you they change so fast day to day as they get closer to 1 and then after that it is hard to keep up what they like and dont like and what they want and don't want
