No, you introduce fruits n vegetables in her daily diet. Not only that its important for constipation, but she also needs minerals n vitamins. Do not give her milk. If she does not take food/fruits, n you give her milk. She will not start eating properly as her needs are fulfilled. Cut back on milk n force her to take other food. In starting only a small amount. Slowly increase.
