Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Symptoms suggestive of congenital liver problem.]You can give solid foods if she is tolerating solid feeds, if she vomits after taking solid foods better to give in liquid. You can give enriched formula feeds to maintain weight gain and tackle nutritional deficiencies.Consult a pediatrician and he will direct you accordingly.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
