Q.
#AskTheExpert Dear Doctor, My son has turned 6 months. Since birth we have been giving him VIT. D3 drops (1ml). Lately, many of our friends who are already parents have shared their experience that they used to give Iron & Calcium supplements as well. My question is that is it mandatory to give these supplements? Have we done any wrong by not giving our son these iron & calcium supplements?
