Issues with last bottle of the day

My baby is a week off of being 10 months old. She eats well, she drinks water well, she started crawling a week ago. However she is now refusing her nighttime bottle before bed, she pushes our hands away and gets upset. Also since crawling she also doesn’t sleep well now whereas before she was a great sleeper. Has anyone else found their baby refuses the last bottle of night at this age? It’s almost like she doesn’t want her bottle because she just wants down on the ground to crawl and play, it’s like she isn’t interested in the bottle. Or could it just be that she is full from dinner and doesn’t want it? We have tried doing an earlier dinner and that doesn’t work either. How important is that last bottle? Should be be trying to force her to take it or try a dream feed?

At 10 months she only needs 400 ml of formula a day so if she's having more than that she may just not be hungry.

If you want her to have the last bottle, could you drop one of her others?

So she only has 2 bottles a day, one in the middle of the night/early morning and one at night. She eats 3 meals a day now. She used to love her night time bottle, but seems to have completely went off it now. X

You could always try her with a cup of milk with her breakfast and lunch?
