A. Yes, a 10-month-old baby likely needs iron, especially if breastfed, as their natural stores deplete; aim for iron-rich foods like fortified cereals and meats, but consult your pediatrician about iron drops, as they're often recommended for breastfed babies to meet the 11mg daily requirement and prevent deficiency, though formula-fed babies usually get enough.

A. Hello! It all depends on your child’s health. Supplements should be always given to the baby only on consultation with the doctor. So if you have any concerns, let your doctor know that and seek medical guidance in this matter.
