A. Hello mom You should give iron drops only it is described by Dr. Otherwise there is no need to give Iron drops to your baby. Mostly doctors recommend to give vitamin D drops which should be continued till baby turns one year old and you should give 1ML per Day. Happy parenting Stay home stay safe
