Drinking less formula

in Babies: 6 - 9 Months
Dd will be 9 months on Saturday and for the last two weeks she's been drinking less formula. She was drinking 30 ounces a day and now we are lucky if she drinks 22 ounces. She eats solids twice a day but she has still been eating the same amount 3 to 4 tablespoons twice a day. She also eats a few puffs and yogurt bites. Is this normal??? She has her 9 month checkup next week and I am asking her dr about this of course. She is not sick and still acting fine. She is still having plenty of wet diapers as well. I'm just a little concerned that she is all of a sudden drinking so much less.

    Yes, both of mine went through that for about 2 weeks. I believe it was related to so,Ida (just went they started eating more), plus teething. They just recently started eating more again thankfully bc I was worried too. I think it's pretty normal though.

    My DS is only 6 months old, but our doctor was surprised that he was eating so much and said the goal was only to take in 24 oz (he takes in anywhere between 30-40 with 40 being the high side lately) and that is even with two-three meals a day. So I think
