A. for Vitamin D3 you need to give daily Sun exposure to the baby and for iron supplement I will suggest some diet. Dark green leafy vegetables, such as spinach. Dried fruit, such as raisins and apricots. Iron-fortified cereals, breads and pastas. Peas. iron-fortified bread and breakfast cereal. nuts and seeds. dried fruit.
