Won't drink bottles anymore

DD is 8 1/2 months - the last few weeks it's a struggle to get her to drink her bottles. Along with changing her diaper...getting her dressed, getting her to wear a hat, or a bib, etc... She eats baby food, but she's not starving for it, just does it because she's restrained and distracted while eating it.

She loves her sippy cup and drinks a lot of water during the day, do you think that's filling her up? Should I put the formula in the sippy this young? Sometimes she just fills her mouth with the water and lets it fall out just to do it, so I am thinking formula could get really messy. She'll drink her morning bottle and sometimes her night bottle but I can barely get 2 ounces, sometimes 3 in her during the day. She's not underweight by any means, so I'm not concerned about her gaining weight, just the nutritional factor of it. Any advice?

I took my ds off the bottle at nine months old it is not too early ...It will be easier to do it now, he loves drinking from the sippy cup...

Thanks. Maybe I'll do morning and bedtime bottles for now, and start sippy day time instead of bottles and eliminate if she does okay.
