A. it is very normal that after 6 months of age you have to start iron supplements for the child in maintenance therapy and your pediatrician has started the same medicine so just follow the instructions of your doctor and maintenance therapy of iron is needed because the child will not get proper iron from the diet you are starting now

A. Hello mom Mostly doctors advice to give Folic acid and it is very common so you should not worry about it at all. And now the baby is six months old so you should also start giving solids and water to your baby. You can start giving Dal Ka Paani, rice water, vegetable soup, fruit’s puree and with the time you can increase the food item in babies regular diet plan.
