  1. just make sure that you are giving them the right kind of solids like no junk this with iron and the vitamins and nutrients in the formula i'm not sure exacly how many ounces they need but i think for a 1 yr old they only need like 16 ounces of milk a day. as long as they are getting the nutrients they need its alright. pretty much the same thing happened with my son, we stepped him up in his foods so things were more solid then liquid and then from then on he only wanted solids he would spit out anything liquidy you tried to feed him


  2. Obviously the bottles are her comfort zone like people eat meatloaf and mashed potatoes or chicken soup.  I would try to get her to drink some of it during the day, perhaps using a tommy tippy cup or whatever they call them now.  She is old enough to take sips from the cup and I would save only one bottle for night time to help her go to sleep.  Speak with your doctor and I'm sure he will tell you the baby is old enough to take small sips from a cup so that she will be weaned from it before she reaches a year old.

  3. give her milk before her solids - at 7 months milk should still be the main part of her diet

  4. offer less foods more formula.  offera bottle before breakfast,  only give a little bit, even when she cries.  she'll get hungry/thirsty
