#asktheexpert My daughter was born premature with 2 weeks IUGR at 33 weeks, at 1.52 kgs, on August 20, 2022. She weighs 7.6 kgs now and is active. But she hardly likes to eat anything lately. Should we get her blood test done? She has started running, and started speaking single words also.

A. Instead of rushing for the blood test, first of all, consult a, pediatrician in person and let them see if it is in fact, need it or not. If the doctor sees that it is necessary, then the doctor will tell you which blood test to get done
