Since yesterday afternoon Alex's food consumption has dropped by more than half

He was having about 200mls at each feed and now I'm lucky if I can get 130mls into him (obviously he's bottle fed). He's just not interested.

Any ideas what this could be? Is he likely to start eating again? He seems happy enough apart from this but it's worrying me a bit.

He might have just finished a growth spurt which may be why he doesnt feel he needs the milk. Or he may be getting a cold or something. 130ml is more than enough to keep him hydrated etc so don't worry about it. It will probably pass in a few days

How many bottles is he having per 24 hours? Has he got any others symtoms ie fever; unsettled; anything out of the ordinary. If it's just the food and he's OK otherwise I wouldn't worry too much but do keep an eye on him and his wet/dirty nappies. It's always worth a visit to the GP if in doubt I feel.
