Very less intake of milk
My 6 months old baby is on formula, she has suddenly dropped her milk intake since last 2-3 weeks...while she was earlier easily drinking 650-700 ml of milk, now she only takes 400-450 ml in 24 hours that too only while sleeping ( i dreamfeed her). Changes: in last 3 weeks:
1. She got vaccinated ( 3rd dose of pneumonococcal + Dpt on 4 feb)
2. Shifted from similac stage 1 to 2 on 20 feb
3. Started with cerelac/diluted dal puree/apple puree once a day in very small quantity.
Pee count-5/6 times
Poo - once in 2 days
BW - 1.786 kgs
CW- 5.8 kgs as on 4 feb
She does not seem interested in drinking milk anymore. Otherwise she is an active baby. What could be the reason for sudden drop in her appetite? Please help.

its look like normal behavioral change and more interest in taking food other than milk . you should increase the frequency of complementary feed . and should not be worried about decrease milk intake
