Hi...by what you quote she seems to be gaining weight well and there is no hard and fast rule that definitely milk should be given in the liquid form as such. You can try giving her milk mixed in her regular porridge diet like Cerelac or Nestum.
Regarding another problem you pointer out - you say - during night sleep she continuosly throws up her body,sleeps withlot of difficulty - this is pointing towards a gastroesophageal reflux and it definitely needs medical attention. Kindly consult your pediatrician regarding this.
