Solids + Milk... What to do?

Hi,
My 7 month old is on 3 meals a day with a 5oz bottle after each one, then a 7oz bottle at night. She drinks the milk after breakfast and dinner but at lunch time she doesn't drink any that I give her. Shall I just not give her milk after lunch? She has juice as-well as what ever I give her at lunch but never the milk after.
Appreciate the help~

I thought you are supposed to give milk 30 mins to an hour before food. Your little one definitely does not need juice, just water for at least the next couple of years and then as long as possible after that.

Yes, just don't give, she's naturally weaning herself and lunch is normally one of the first to go. Don't worry, she is still getting enough milk through her other feeds and you may find that she wants it again in a few weeks again before dropping it completely. Just offer water as a drink with her meal x
