Weaning and lack of milk intake

Hi
DD is more or less fully established with weaning now however over the past couple of days she doesn't seem to be taking much milk (today roughly around 16ozs she has been out of sorts maybe a cold/teething so not sure if this is why) I know it should be at least 20oz for her age, anyway I do give her yoghurts, double cream etc and i know this is supposed to count towards her milk intake but how do you know how much IYSWIM

How old is she?

7mth, she has had her introductory week at nursery this week so again this could be why she is out of sorts but trying to get her to take milk is becoming a battle, btw she does love her food

My LO started at nursery this week - 7 months in a week's time. His milk intake has reduced but his solids have increased. They give him such tasty food, he can't resist. He takes a good 4 or 5 oz disguised in baby porridge so maybe sneak it in other ways?

I'm going to make cauliflower cheese for dinner and was thinking of using formula milk, has anyone else tried it with formula milk

I dont know what it would taste like with formula but from 6 months you can use full fat cows milk in cooking as long as you dont give it for a main drink

I have done it with formula milk - tastes lovely!
