I wouldn't worry too much if she is leeping well and her nappies are frequently wet.
You can make her her calcium intake in food so add plenty of cheese and milk based dishes

My dd does this off and on. At 9months Hv said just give her a bottle am, and at night.

She doesn't take much at either, but polishes off lots of yoghurt at bedtime, after 2oz or so of bottle!

I just give her loads of rice pudding and macaroni cheese

She sometimes likes a 6oz bottle at 5.00am

This is only time she ever drinks more than 2 or 3 oz

Help - we went cold turkey with our 22months twins twice daily milk bottles (3pm & 6.30pm) and now they are refusing to drink milk (before they would cry for their milk)- we don't want to go back to bottles or spouts if we can help it but after three weeks am getting worried re. calcium - dd is fine eating lots of cheese and I know its bad for them but lots of petite filous but ds is refusing milk, cheese and never liked yoghurts - any advise?

What about jelly or stuff with gelatine in. Not the best option but if Dairy products are not liked - the geletine wil be good for bones? An idea, though I'm no nutritiinist!
