Weaning and milk consumption

My 10 month old dd has been on solids since she was 6 months. She has never been a huge milk drinker. She now has three meals a day (which include dairy) and a beaker of water at lunchtime but sometimes takes as little as 10 ounces of milk over the entire day. She is producing wet and soiled nappies as normal and seems happy in herself. She is putting on weight perfectly and has been on the same centile line since birth. Am I worrying over nothing?

In short, yes.
She sounds perfect, just not big on milk.

Ohhh, so pleased to read this, my 9mo DS is just like this. It says here that at 1yo they need about 12oz of milk a day, and it can be cow's milk, so your DD is not too far off really

She took even less milk today so I think teething may be having an effect on it too. She is still loving her solids and water though!! Will just keep making sure she has plenty of yogurt and cheese and dairy based products. Thanks for the link mistressploppy.
