7 month old not drinking milk!

[Mummacharchar]

Hello, wonder if anyone can offer advice? My LO has always been abit funny with his milk but now he's 7 months and started solids he is just not that interested. Only has 4oz bottles even though I offer 7oz. He can go 4 hours and still the same. He's abit hit and miss with solids which is fine as it's all learning mainly and I know he still needs his milk more. He has early morning bottle, lunchtime bottle, 4/4.30 bottle and bedtime bottle then he wakes in the night for a bottle. At the moment waking up more and a real struggle to get him back in his cot! But that's another issue!
Anyone else go through a similar thing with milk and should I be worried? He doesn't seem to be losing weight
Thanks ☺️

Sorry @Mummacharchar my scant maths skills seem to have vanished completely tonight. How many ounces does that make in 24 hours? Is he getting 20 floz?

He's normally having about 17oz during the day then a bottle during the night so I would say roughly around 20-22 Oz in a 24 hour period?

Ok so you probably know this already but once he drops below 20floz in 24 hours he'll need a daily vitamin.

I'm wondering though if you've tried a different milk, like the comfort version of the milk he's already on?

What I wouldn't do is swap to the follow on milk as the added iron is unnecessary and can inhibit appetite.

Have you tried getting more calories into his food too? You could try a few calorie dense foods like mashed avocado on white toast or add some olive oil to his purées.
