Her weight is below the 5th percentile and her height is on the 90th percentile for her age. She will appear thinner then she is due to her height. Suggest nutrient dense drinks in place of milk such as Pediasure, milkshakes (milk and ice cream blended) or yogurt smoothies (yogurt, frozen fruit , and ice cream blended) for additional calories and protein for weight gain. You wrote she will not accept milk then give her on a daily basis yogurts, cheese, puddings, and ice cream which are all dairy substitutes. Hoped that helped you.
