Question
My baby is 43 days old and is taking Vitamin D and A, along with liquid calcium supplements. Should the D and A be taken one day apart? What time should they be taken? Besides the calcium being taken two hours before bedtime, how many milliliters of calcium should a 40-day-old baby digest daily?
Answer
Is the baby breastfed or formula-fed? The main ingredients of Vitamin D or A are the same; it’s recommended to digest one type daily. Take 400 international units each day, in the morning. If there is a deficiency in calcium, supplementation can be considered, 3 milliliters at a time, once a day, in the evening. These are the suggestions for the question ‘A 43-day-old baby is taking Vitamin D and A.’ I hope this helps and wish you good health!
