If you are nursing her say three to four times a day, you're meeting her Ca needs. However, I am not suggesting that you dont try to introduce cow's milk. Be reassured and not panic about meeting her needs. In the meanwhile, you can slowly get her used to cow's milk and complete your weaning.
Can you try adding chocolate sauce or whatever it is called (forgive my ignorance) to the milk, or try plain old pre-packaged chocolate milk. How about milk shakes with her favorite fruits. I, as a child, did not like the smell of milk but would take with something like complan or boost. What I would suggest is you offer her sips say after a snack till she gets used to the taste, you can then get her to take the desired quanitities, slowly.
We just recently finished this part - milkshakes are huge favs in our home. Hope that helps.

Hi tikka,

thanks for your suggestion.
I give her milkshake(milk+water+melon) once in the evening and dip bisuits in the milk and give her.she bf's only on one side, so i have doubt whether she meets her calcium requirement.her pead asked not to force her but try after 20 days.

Hi,

You can add yogurt and cheese in her diet if meeting Ca requirement is concern to you. Yogurt can be flavoured with fresh fruits or veggies(yes,carrots & sweet potatoes taste good). Try mixing cheese with the veggies.
