I need to send a FHIR message which contains a documentation like structure. So can I have a Bundle whose first entry is MessageHeader, 2nd entry is Composition which is followed by other resources referenced in the Composition?
Other option would be a Bundle with MessageHeader and another Bundle (for the document)

yes those are both options

Note that the FHIR 'document' rules would only come into play if the MessageHeader pointed to a Bundle containing the Composition and other resources. You're free to put Composition direction in the message bundle, but if you do so, the FHIR document rules won't hold (e.g. expectations around how the content should be rendered)
