7 Month old refusing formula

Hi my LO is 7months tomorrow, i started him on soilids at 4 n half months and as hes getting older he is refusing his bottle more and more and wanting solids. im lucky to get him to take 420ml in a day that is including most of that in his solids. He will only drink about 30 to 40mls of milk each feed and then refuse to drink anymore.

I was just wondering is this enough milk, and what can i give to him instead of forcing him to drink. He is currently having four feeds a day each feed with soilds.

Just make sure he is getting calcium in other ways like yogurts and cheese. At the end of the day you can't false him. If he won't drink it there is nothing you can do.
