Have you tried bumping up the calories in her formula? More powder to water ratio. The dietician gave us a recipe since ds wasn't a very good eater. I also added cream and vanilla nestle's quik powder to his bottles when he was around that age. Yobaby yogurt -- didn't have greek yogurt in our area back then. He pretty much got most of his calories from his formula, but I would grind up whatever we were having, as did daycare once he turned 6 months old. He did have texture issues, so a lot of times too I'd add butter and salt to baby food.

My daughter didn't care for Pediasure (would always throw it up), but loves Carnation Instant Breakfast mixed with her milk. The CF doc. had us start that at about 11 months since she was so small with the formula. Another thing she loves is the Carnation Instant Breakfast Plus. That is already mixed and is lactose free so might be better for a small baby. Those are 375 calories and 17 grams of fat. I believe in vanilla they even have a fattier version.
