refusing BM?

in Babies: 6 - 9 Months

I am an EP and since we started giving LO pureed foods about a month ago she has went from eating 6oz easy 5 times a day to only eating 4oz 5 times a day. She hasn't eaten that little since she was a month old. I always give her a bottle before her solids. She loves solids so much though. She would eat 4oz of solids if I let her. But I started limiting her to 2oz really quick when her BM intake went down. I didn't seem to make a difference at all. Is this normal? I'm about ready to let her eat all the solids she wants because it's all she seems to want to eat...

    First big kudos to you for being an EP er and still doing it as that is HARD work!  Second, until around a year I would still offer bottles 20-60 min before solids.  Lastly, I wouldn't worry so much about the ounces as bm is different than formula.  Its composition changes so as a baby gets older he/she does not have to increase his/her ounces intake like they would if they were on formula.
