HEY!!! My DD is 15 month she was breast fed till 11 month. She took to bottle with no problem. She didn't like milk much tho and I was worried she is not having enough...now she loves milk and cant get enough. Now im worried she is having too much milk confused smile. Anyway I'm worried she drinks too much milk and doesn't eat enough.
I have no health worries, she is happy and lively kid.
I have limited her milk to around 500 ml a day.
She does big poops at least twice a day.
Shall I give her more milk?
Thank you!

They only need around 300/350mls from age 1. I wouldn't give more than 500mls as it could fill her up and put her off solid foods.

Completely agree with demented.

It's good that she likes milk but not if she's drinking it instead of taking solids Smile

Do you give her water in a cup with her meals?

What does she drink milk from? If you give it to her in a cup rather than a bottle she'll probably start drinking less naturally.
