Pediatrician 's  Response
thanks for asking
I gone through your question. Your 9month old child suffering from frequent motion since 4 months, with significant weight loss. and diagnosed as lactose intolerance. And you giving rice but kanjee. and baby weaps always.
If i was your treating pediatrician I would admit the kid for close monitoring .
these under weight infants needs many supplements to be added in rice kanjee to proper rocovery. I would investigate for infection , hemoglobin, and wheat allergy in this infant. you can give potato, Khichari( Gruel of pulse and rice with oil and sugar) , gruel of wheat.
keep watch on weight gain of infant. it should be about 25-50 gm per day.
hope i answer your query.
wish your kid fast recovery
