My baby is going off his milk

[Leahloumum]

I have a 7 month old baby he has 3 meals a day and milk in between ... he's suddenly going off his milk is only doing 3oz ish instead of 6 oz .. is this normal ? He is teething as well so could that be something to do with it ?

Totally normal to me. We dropped to 2x 6oz bottles a day by 8 months (one early morning & one before bed). My DD just preferred food & wasn’t remotely interested in milk during the day! She had a good appetite & clearly just felt full.

I didn’t force it, just made sure she was getting calcium elsewhere. I made sure she had a decent whack of milk in her porridge/weatabix (I chose to make it with formula rather than cows milk to top her up), lots of cheese & cheese based foods, lots of yoghurt & I often made rice pudding with formula for after tea.

As a toddler, she drinks more milk now than she did then! She loves milk! So don’t worry, just keep that calcium topped up in other ways

How many bottles does he have? May be time to start reducing the number of bottles

He Has 4 bottle use
Early morning 5:30 ish
Then 8:30-9
Then his porrage half 10
Then lunch 12:30-1
Then about 3
Then supper half 4
Then bed time bottle
On a normal day

Mine's doing the same @Leahloumum. Today she had:
7am bottle 6oz
8.30am Yoghurt with mashed banana
11am bottle 4oz
2pm 1 weetabix made with 4oz milk and fruit/yoghurt puree
5pm bottle 5oz
6pm jar of chicken and pasta with veg
7.30pm bottle 1/2oz

Until the last couple weeks she was regularly having 7oz 5 times a day and a little food as well. She's eating everything we offer as far as solids are concerned so I guess she's happy as always try to offer milk first.
