7 Month old and Milk

[CaptainMummy]

Hannah is FF and has always been terrible with her milk. She is now 7 months and is such a pain in the bum to feed. She basically refuses the bottle all the time, no matter how long since her last feed and regardless of how much she took. I barely give her any solids in the hope that she will drink her milk but nope, doesnt work.
She only ever takes 2-3oz of her bedtime bottle therefore wakes up 3hrs later for a bottle (which she drains)

She is teething (has cut 4 teeth and another one on the way) so maybe that is why she wont drink?
When I do give her solids, she devours them (BLW, but she eats everything that is put down in front of her.)

I offer her a bottle very often, but it always gets the same reaction; spit out teat and refuse to drink.

She is gaining weight, a chunky little thing! So maybe I should just stop worrying and give her just a few bottles, Like in the morning, afternoon and bedtime? And give solids in between?

My other two never did this,(they just drank their bottles with no fuss), so I have no idea what I need to do here

I'm in literally the EXACT same position with my 8 month old! He loves his solids but the bottle is a FIGHT. He will drain a 6-8 oz bottle during the night when he's sleepy but when he's awake, not a chance

I s'pose I'm in a similar situation myself but I'm breastfeeding. My LO would (usually) rather be doing anything than feeding during the day, yet wakes frequently during the night for feeds. Has been like this about 2 months now. Am hoping she's gonna grow out of it soon!

I just feed her cereal in the morning, something like a bagel or toast, some banana and maybe a yoghurt in the afternoon and porridge before bath time, solids wise. And sometimes bits of things in between (if she's begging like a puppy dog for something I'm eating! )
