Vitamin supplements questions
Hello
My son is 7 months old
He has breastfeeding in the morning and formula milk at night ( due to less milk)
Is it safe to give multivitamin supplements and iron supplements for him while having formula milk
Plz rectify?
Plz suggest some iron and multivitamin drops
As my pediatrician is not suggesting.
I found that my baby is lacking in some strength although he is having solids daily
