Continue vitamin d drops... Give exclusive BF, mother should take enough diet which is calorie dense and positive thinking helps in BM production... If any doubt about BM check baby's weight if its gaining then BM is sufficient and no need to give anything else.... If insufficient BM than you can give any stage1 formula powder..
Next Steps
give calcium suspension also for 2 to 3months
Health Tips
Breast milk is the best...
