Why is my baby drinking less formula?

My daughter is 6 months old and she is drinking less milk and not finishing up her milk. I will make 180mls of formula and she may finish only 60-100mls of formula. I have started solids by feeding her purées (about 1-4 teaspoons depends on whether she likes the food or not). Do you think I should try changing formula?
