Baby not interested in milk

My LO is turning 6 months next week. For the past few days he doesn't appear interested in his milk and would often leave at least 50mls of milk after every feed. And the duration btwn each feed is longer than usual as well. What's going on??

Has he started solids? If so, it's quite normal for them to have decreased milk intake. My LO's milk intake in the day reduced by half when she started solid. But in the evening she still latch every 2-3 hours, so I'm not too worried.

Yes but he isn't taking much solids either. I would say mostly tasting only.

Hey, Don't worry. Generally when the baby starts having solids then the interest for having milk reduces gradually. As long as the baby is eating properly and getting interest in more solids, it should be fine.

If he started solids, some may lose interest in milk
