Supplementing diet with tablet is one of the most common reason mother are unable to give balanced diet as they get bit relaxed that supplements are going on nothg will be deficit. stop relying on them... Home made food with all love and hygiene is best nutrition for your baby. make sure to give Atleast 4-5 serving per day and give variety to their food. explore their taste and flavours . and add a spoon of ghee / butter / few lemon drops / jaggery in place of sugar to increase taste and nutrition. 😊

For how long you want to give medicines to your child. I would suggest if he is not deficient stop giving unnecessary medication. Kids usually gets attracted to food in different shape, colour and smell. I would suggest try this way. Stop screen time specially during meal time. Let him play. Give him variety of fruits.
