Answer:
few suggestions to help her to take milk are
You may flavour the milk with natural flavourings like elaichi powder, kesar, dates syrup etc.
If the child above 2 years you may use flavoured milk supplements.
You may give in the form of fruit shakes like mango/banana/cheeku/apple shake.
You may even try giving milk in the form of porridges/kheer/custards.
Other alternatives to milk are curd/yogurt, paneer/cheese, buttermilk/lassi, soymilk (above 5 years of age), tofu etc.

Suggestions for constipation are
For constipation both fluid and fiber intake has to be increased. For that
Give more water. If the child doesn’t take plain water include fluids like coconut water, , juices, soups etc.
Give dals with husk in khichri form or add whole dals/beans/legumes to the soups.
Give porridge of dalia, oats, ragi, rice falkes. Alternatively these whole cereals can be used for khichri, uttapam, upma or idlis too.
Give plenty of fruits & vegetables. Hard fruits like apple, pear can be given as stew. Fruits like banana, papaya, cheeku be given as it is or in a mashed form.
Avoid giving refined cereals/ maida products.
Hope this helps.
