Rejecting formula

...all of the sudden. While the look on her face when she does it is priceless the act presents a big problem. My production has been down for weeks. I can't re-up my stash, it's that bad...so we've come to rely on 8oz of formula on top of what I express. She's not quite 5 months, so we haven't started solids. I don't know what my husband will do tomorrow if rejects the formula while I'm at work. Suggestions?

    Thanks everyone. Apparently she ate the formula today and all was cool. I think we will try mixing it the next time she rejects it though. I guess she is developing more and more preferences and dislikes. Fun and stressful to watch :)
