Hi...My baby is 21 days old and he is not gaining much weight. However, we have improved his feeding but didn't get positive response. Can we give him some vitamin drops ?

A. It's very common in infants. for newbies is common to shed some weight after birth and it applies to almost all babies. They burn calories for crying, having milk, breathing etc..it's quite normal.. They shed around 10-15% of birth weight in first two to three weeks and will slowly regain their weight within a month or two.

A. Hi mom no your baby is small and don't risk with medication, I suggest It's good to show your kid to your doctor and follow his advise. That would be the best and safest option for your littl one.
