first of all she has good weight . a 9 month old should weigh a mininum of 7 kgs below that its underweight. so she is not underweight just a little on the lesser side. u can give her non veg mixed with rice or othe food stuffs. i can add grinded dry fruits to her diet. along with a multivitamin drops and a calcium syrup
