Breast milk always. If it’s not difficult, why don’t you try expressing breast milk and spoon feed her? If it’s necessary to start animal milk , start formula. It’s safer that cows milk. Always try feeding from glass and spoon or Palladai. Most diarrhoea caused by formula is due to improper handling of bottles.

You should not give cow milk to your baby. She can get infections, diarrhea from that. You can switch to formula feed if mother's milk is not available.
Next Steps
stop cow's milk.
