This is just a phase they will go through. One of the reasons can be teething , the gums are sore and making them uncomfortable hence they don't want to drink. Another reason is they are more aware of and distracted by the environment and finds it difficult to absorb the environment and drink milk at the same time initially. Once they get past this they will resume to their normal drinking amount. Oh by the way you do clean your baby's tongue and gums with wet cloth daily right? Because if you don't the tongue may have the buildup of the milk and this may also cause them to lose interest in drinking milk.
