My princess has been a bottle baby since she was 5 months old, recently she dropped down to 3 a day

However the last 2 days she will have about 140-160 in the morning and then thats it , maybe another 20mls tops during the day

Is this normal at her age?

I ended up giving her rice cereal with milk before bed last night to fill her up but shes only getting around 200mls a day now instead of 500mls she had before

Anyone else had this..is it a stage..i've tried a cup she drinks water from but she only has a few gulps. She eats really really well and seems to only want solids and had a yogurt at lunch for calcium

Help!!!!!

not much advice sorry - we have got something similar too! Sophie is also on 3 x 200ml a day and it is a miracle if she drinks more than half . I tend to give her a 10 min break and then have another go.

I am also wondering if she doesn't like the flavour - have moved her up to stage 2 in the last month.

Good luck!! Hope someone else has some more helpful suggestions than me!

She has her moments!! She didn't have a sleep yesterday afternoon (just sang Christmas songs for an hour and a half) so was a right little $%&# for her dad at bedtime . She was bundled in with no milk and no story (some how he did manage to clean her teeth ) but she was asleep within about 5 minutes!!
