6 month old only drinks 450ml of formula Rss

I'm at the end of my wits. Since she was 5 months old, my baby started to refuse her milk. Taking about 450ml during the day so I woke her up at 10pm to give her more milk to ensure that she takes at least close to 600ml. She used to take about 900-1000ml a day when she was 4 months old.

She is not teething and I went to a paediatrician when she was 5.5 months old who told me to start solid. Now that she is on solid (2-3 times a day), she has been taking 450 ml since last week. In the morning after she wakes up, she only wants to take 50ml of formula. I thought that she should be hungry but she only drinks until she is not hungry, I think.

Weight wise, she has always been in the 95th percentile since she was born. I am not so worried about her weight gain but more of calcium intake and dehydration.

How much do/did your 6 months old baby drink per day? i was told that the minimum is 600 but it is so hard to do and she can't be forced. SHe will cry and try to break free if I try to give her more milk. I feed her every 4 hours during the day. I tried a 5 hour gap with the same result. I'm so lost sad

My Daughter has never been a big drinker right from the start she never has drunken more than 160ml at a time usually only about 90ml with or with out food was all she would drink but she was happy with that and still slept all night and growing like a trouper oh and she would only have about 4 ot 4 bottles a day max only when she went to bed, i now give her a milo in the morning to try and get more milk into her for the calcium factor but then she dosent eat breakfast late now if she has that milo
