A. Hello dear parent, you can begin with moong dal ka Pani 5 to 6 spoons 2 to 3 times in the day. Do this for 2 days and look for any indigestion in the baby increase the quantity if everything remains fine. Also give rice water, watery Khichdi, home made Cerelac, apple pure etc the same way you gave moong dal ka Pani. And you can give formula milk than cow milk. As formula milk is more nutritious than cow milk. For vitamin supplements you must ask doctor if it is to be continued and in what quantity.
