My baby is also 1y 4m and drinking lesser milk lately. She can’t even finish 80ml per feeding and she is only drinking on average 300ml per 24hrs. It’s really less. She’s eating about 2-3 times a day. Her routine is milk time at 7:30am then back to sleep, wake up at 11am milk again then shower. Brunch, milk, nap time about 2hrs. Wake up drink milk, play time, milk, dinner, play, milk, sleep. She’s also active and constantly want to eat our food. Sometimes she doesn’t even want to suck on her bottle so we resort to giving her straw instead and she usually finishes her milk. Maybe at this stage, they’re playful and want to try new things so maybe you can let your baby try drinking from a sippy with straw cup? I also give my baby a small packet of milo once or twice a week for breakfast. If she’s not drinking enough milk, I’ll make sure to supplement her nutrients with food instead. As her nutrients will come mainly from her food source at this age, not so much from milk. You may also want to try giving baby full cream milk or fresh milk, see if she wants it.

My baby has a full set of baby teeth! Hahaha she’s quite fast. But sometimes she’s still putting her finger inside her mouth maybe out of habit. When she was growing our her molars, she also lost her appetite. Didn’t want to drink or eat. I gave her something cold to gnaw on like frozen cube of breastmilk, a bit of cold water/juice. It helps to soothe the tension from the jaws. I also have teethers in the freezer/fridge so when she’s starting to put her finger in her mouth previously, I’ll just take it out and give it to her. Hope yours is just a phase and hang in there, it’ll be over soon! 🤗
