My elder brother and babhi. Adopted a baby boy which is just 3 weeks years old. Little background: its 12 year completed of brother's marriage but didn't get any child. So they adopt a recently new born baby boy. Child's background: family of the said baby is poor and has economical issue. He (the baby) is the 8th child of the parents. Even while pregnancy mother had no proper supplements. Doctor's attention: just after 2 week of birth, the baby boy brought to my home and had rituals + taken to district's hospital. We are habiting in remotes area, a village, where there is no proper infrastructures. No primary health centre nearby. In case of any health issues we need to approach district hospital or any other reputed hospitals. So my question is: what are the best supplements we can be given for this baby? Presently we are serving with lactogen 1 and some other vitamins. We highly need your valuable care and opinions in this critical hour. Thank you.

Hello dear congratulations to your family for a new member. The nutrition of mother in pregnancy has a effect on baby but then now it doesn't matters as baby is born. I want to know the weight of baby. Try formula feed aptamilk or nanpro. Supplements to be given would be viscrenyl zn drops 5 drops daily and oral vitamin d drops 1 ml daily. Keep monitoring weight of child every month. Keep proper hygiene and do not give anything else by mouth.

Congratulations! infant formula fed babies usually get their requirement of vitamins from formula itself. Make sure you follow the instructions for preparing the formula correctly and give correct amount of milk. Give all the vaccines on time and monitor the growth. Thanks.
