She's 20 months old right? Why not start weening her onto solids? As to not wanting milk it could be she is lactose intolerant or she is probably teething which is making her jaw sore. My guess is get her on some simple solids, teething can be almost unbareable cause the new teeth are hyper sensitive. As to the no milk thing is its probably really painful to chew or suckle atm. Probably the best option would be some simple baby food. Something easy on the jaw and teeth. Also you will want to limit their sugar intake.

  And Ma'am I'm not saying no sugar but just limit it cause its a real drag to remove baby teeth too early as they make up the sockets eventually that the permanent adult teeth are suppose to line up into. So if they rot/get cavities too early you will definitely need intense braces. And braces are already expensive but a 5 year treatment of braces your talking no longer the like 1.2K usd suddenly inflating to like a 8K O... O
  
  Also cavities can be really painful and or a drag. <3

She may have developed a lactose intolerance. Let her be your teacher, so you can learn what works or doesn't for her. Don't keep forcing discomfort on her. Share this information with her pediatrician and ask for recommendations.

Have you consulted your midwife or doctor, if not then do so.
Not that I think anything is duly worrying, some babies just no longer want or need breastfeeding at this age, therefore you might just have to consider feeding your daughter on formula as well as the solids.

That's normal. Babies only need a little bit of dairy at that age. Get it in other ways and she'll be fine

Is it breast milk she's refusing? If so, you can sometimes re-encourage a child to drink milk by dipping your finger in some fresh (real) milk with a high cream content and letting her suck that to encourage her.

It is also worth seeing a midwife or healtvisitor to assess wether her being off her milk might be reflective of some underlying and simply addressable condition.

It's concerning. I remember my brother doing a similar thing as baby, which is why he's somewhat physically weak. You should definitely ask your doctor about this. It can be something serious.

At that age she's well into the age of being able to eat solids, talk to her pediatrician to find out what exactly to give her
