Question

Which brand of fish oil and calcium supplement should a seven-and-a-half-month-old baby choose?

Answer

Generally, a baby’s fontanelle will only fully close around the age of one and a half. Since the baby is currently seven months old and the fontanelle has not yet closed, this is normal and not necessarily due to a calcium deficiency. It is recommended to first conduct a blood calcium test for confirmation. Medications purchased from regular people’s hospitals or children’s hospitals are usually effective. Over-the-counter calcium supplements are effective in replenishing calcium. Additionally, incorporating complementary foods such as animal liver, lean meat, etc., can also help supplement calcium.
