1. 0.5 ml
2. Yes can be given
3. Drooling is very common since salivation is increasing to prepare them for solids they are about to start. Babies commonly sweat from head since they dissipate heat from there, just check for other signs liking frequently taking breaks while sucking or turning blue in colour
1. Vitamin d (1ml/800iu) 0.5 ml OD. In case your baby was preterm the dose is 1ml once a day
2. Yes you can give the dose in pulse polio programme
3. Yes, since your baby is starting to develop teeth, he is drooling. Head sweating mat be normal if your baby is excessively clothed. There is nothing to worry. Clothing should be one or max two layers extra from adults.
