Just throwing an idea out there...do you think she is getting distracted when she should be feeding? I noticed around this age my DS will not have a full feed when there are distractions. I often have to BF him in his room straight after his nap to get him to have a good feed or he just bobs on and off... ::)

Sorry i meant the bed time feeds.  She lost her night feeds about 2 months ago, if she wakes in the night now she sometimes gets a bit of water/juice.

Yeah, she always been a very nosey child and she wont eat when we are out and about as she would rather be smiling and giggling at every one who walks past.  She has just discovered crawling and standing up so she has much better things to do then be strapped in a chair and fed.  She is quiet happy sat on the floor with me eating snacks but doesnt seem to want to be in her high chair at the mo. 
She still isnt taking much milk at all and seems to be sleeping more in the day then usual...does that seem common?

It seems to be GS behaviour.........Maybe she is having her 6 month one a little late? I think we had ours late :) How long has it been going on for? I would also try feeding her in a dark quiet place and see if she takes more milk?

Alexandra did the same thing for 2 weeks... scared me to death - and was very annoying at times LOL!  I agree with Sara, growth spurt or it could be teething too.  That will always put them off of food regardless of pain meds at times!
