any tips to get 7mo old to drink more ounces of milk?

Question

my 7 mo old for a few weeks now will only drink close to.20 oz in a 24 hour period. no matter what I do she just doesnt want it. shes a happy content baby she just doesnt want to drink like she used to. she is formula fed only. any tips to help her get more down ?

Answer

Did this start once on solids? If so, stop the solids until intake is back up. 
If she’s always eaten less than the 24oz but is gaining weight and has 6+ wet diapers, I wouldn’t worry.

Answer

If she’s happy, content, and has plenty of wet/poop diapers. I wouldn’t worry about increasing her intake.

Answer

As long as she’s happy and fed I don’t see any problems. Babies will eat until they’re full, you can’t really make them eat any extra. If she’s still producing enough wet and dirty diapers she’s all good. My son was drinking like 6oz at a time when he was two months and everyone kept telling me I was feeding him too much. But he was a big baby, and babies will only eat until they’re full. He’s a perfect healthy weight 16 month old now
