weight is less, continue iron drops. Give 3 meals + 1 or 2 snacks to a 1 year old baby. Give all family food in soft and little mashed form..don't give puree form, add ghee in baby food

hi
well , weight of your child is good enough
so as such no need of extra medicines.
although as it is prescribed by your pediatrician,you must give it as per his prescription only ,if you are not sure with the dosage, please confirm with your pediatrician only
because he or she knows well about your child Health
