500-600 ml.top.ilk is too.much . Give natural milk 200 to 250 ml.per day. No formula feed, no bottle feed. This large amount of milk will cause obesity and constipation.

give all home made foods that we eat routinely

My choice would be to feed your baby with mother's milk until 2yrs of age..
Next Steps
If not possible either you can take medicines to increase breastmilk secretions or opt for Cows milk than buffalo milk.
Health Tips
Formulas can be used when both these are not feasible.

Hi,
Give her only 250 ml of milk either buffalo/ formula feeds.
Increase complementary feeds 5-6 times/ day.
