Giving vitamin supplements to newborn
Can I give vitamin supplements to my two months old baby by mixing it in milk? It is difficult to feed him by dropper, so can the supplements be given by mixing in milk?

If the baby is gaining adequate weight , has no significant medical history at birth or till now, multivitamins are not needed.. Only Vit D3 drops 400 IU per day orally once a day for one year….
