hello
thanks for writing to healthcaremagic
children who are bottle fed with lot of milk may not consume any thing more..........because their appetite is lost because of the milk intake
since you ave reduced the number of feeds her appetite should improve
if he continues to feed poorly.............get her evaluated
conditions like anaemia reduce the appetite and may be she requires some iron supplementation
hope this helps
take care
