suplemental feedings

My grandaughter has a developmental delay,  she eats very well but the dr. is saying she has stopped gaining weight and started to loose.   The dr ordered pediasure 1.5 , wic will not provide this because they state shes not under weight to their standerds. Is there another supplement close to that that is less exspensive . My daughter cant afford  these supplements on her own. please help me .

Suggest milkshakes (milk and ice cream blended), or yogurt smoothies (yogurt, ice cream, or frozen fruit-if she accepts it- blended) for additional calories and protein for weight gain and  are about the same as Pediasure. Recommend replacing her milk at meals/snacks with the milkshakes or smoothies.
