Patient's question:
Hello! Could you please advise me, experts? My daughter has never taken any vitamins since she was born. One day, I heard from others that babies need to take some vitamins, such as "cod liver oil" and "vitamins D, A, B2, and C." It made me a bit confused. What I want to ask is, what exactly should I give my baby to eat? If I do, how much should I give her per day? Thank you!!Doctor's answer:
I don't know how the child's physical and developmental growth is going, and what their dietary and lifestyle conditions are like? Do they have any bad habits like picky eating or food refusal? You don't need to deliberately supplement vitamins for the baby. For a baby who is two and a half months old, it's enough to give them some juice or plain water. The baby is too young, so whatever you give them should be introduced gradually. However, now they are eating one fish oil capsule every day as prescribed by the doctor to promote calcium absorption.
