A. if the growth of the child is proper there is no need to give any health supplements or calcium or multivitamins to the child but if it is less than your doctor will examine and according to the deficiency the doctor will give medicine but it is is is at the same time advisable to go natural by giving diet as per age of the child which contains all the important nutrients and supplements. usually you have to give only iron and vitamin d supplements to the child but that also in maintenance dosage and not as a deficiency dosage after medical consultation.

A. Hello there ma’am please do not worry about it too much and as per my opinion and personal experience of two babies yes you can continue the vitamins and iron syrup and also give baby ajwain and saunf water on daily basis. Take care
