before she started on solids she was having 30-35oz per day.this gradually dropped to 20-25oz a day as i introduced solids,which was what i expected.however,for the past 2-3 weeks she has only been taking 15oz a day at the very most.i thought it was due to teething,or because she had a cold and was bunged up,but even when she cut her 2nd tooth and the last cold cleared up(she has yet another one now)she wasnt drinking any more milk.

she is having 3 meals a day,usually a little of what the other dc are having with a yoghurt or a fruit pot for pudding.she drinks plenty of water as well,but i know she should be having at least 20oz of milk a day still and i dont know what to do.

the 20oz doesnt need to all be as a drink so any other milk your lo has e.g. with cereal, in foods e.g. cheese sauce, custard, and other dairy products e.g. cheese, yoghurt, etc all count towards that target too.
