Confused about what/how much milk for one year old.

My DD has just turned one and has suddenly gone off her milk. She has been formula fed and was having three seven ounce bottles a day. I made her breakfast with formula milk then she would drink the rest, then she would have one after lunch before her nap, then one at bedtime. The last couple of days she has had most of her breakfast one, but refused or had very little of the other two. She hasn't eaten a lot more food or anything. I'm worried she isn't getting enough. I've tried her with cows milk in a beaker but she isn't keen despite persevering. Do I need to give her the milk in a beaker now? If she's hardly drinking any does she need a vitamin supplement?

Any advice appreciated.

around 300mls is recommended from 1 year. This doesnt all have to be in drink form as milk in cereal, yoghurts, cheese, etc all count towards it too. It is recommended that all children from 6months to 5 years take a vitamin supplement of vitamins A,C and D.
