the protruding stomach/belly is kind of a belly fat, like the older fat uncles do. She was so chubby but then she started losing weight with her growth but the belly remains the same. weight is almost 11kgs and the height is 3.1feet.
P.S: she has no dullness, really active she is, and mother has just stopped feeding her week ago so no issues there as well.

then no need to worry just get CBC to rule out if she has anemia or starting of anemia.
also add fruit and vegetables like apple carrot beetroot red meat in her diet that is rich in iron.
consult with CBC report I'll suggest you afterwards that if she need iron supplements or not.
