how important is formula to 13month old?

hiya all of a sudden lily who is 13month old is drinking hardly any of her formula milk. she's also been sick two evenings in a row straight after her bedtime bottle but think that had more to do with her tea coz she had same thing two days running. she's fine straight afterwards, not crying or moaning not hot, just waits patiently while I change her p.js and clears up mess then goes bed as normal. she's fine during the day not sick, her normal mischeivous self and eating normally. but last few days she's not been all that interested in her milk. instead of 8oz in morning and again last thing before bed she has half. does it matter so much now that she's over a year or should I just take it as a sign she doesn't want it anymore and should have normal cows milk at bed time and breakfast instead? sorry for yammering.

thanks for getting back to me. I probably shoulda started weaning her off it when she hit one but thought I'd let her tell me when she's ready. looks like she has now! x x

yeah def maybe its to much for her now shes prob geting over full, she would be fine on cows milk as she is over a year old, or maybe she doesnt need any milk b4 bed as she might be geting all she needs through the day. you could try a sugar free juice drink so its not to heavy on her stomach
