So that's no problem.  Give her cereals . You are lucky that your baby has transitioned well to semi solids . Mostly mother's have the problem the other way round . The babies don't leave milk and go on to semi solids .         Regarding how much milk to be given . Generally for any child nutritional needs required  from milk can be obtained from about 500 ml of milk in a day . This would include the entire amount of milk or milk products that the baby consumes. I am sure the cereal that you prepare also must be with milk . So it doesn't matter if the baby doesn't want milk in the liquid form . In case the baby is taking breast feeds you should continue that as and when he wants.  The combo of semi solid foods and breast milk is the best
