A 38-day-old baby has been uncomfortable since over 20 days, often straining with a flushed face and crying. The body is curled up, hands clenched into tiny fists, until he talks nonsense or has a bowel movement. After a while, the straining starts again.

While supplementing with calcium, children also need to absorb vitamin D. More sunlight exposure aids in calcium absorption. Generally, if infants lack sunlight exposure or are bottle-fed, they usually need to start calcium supplementation from one month old, and it is recommended to continue until 2-3 years old. Infants under 3 months old typically receive calcium through the digestion of cod liver oil, while mothers digest calcium supplements. It is suggested that infants take Icodextrin orally and mothers take Calcium Gluconate D. After 3 months, infants can also supplement with calcium and cod liver oil, but not in excess. Infants aged 1-6 months should supplement with 200 milligrams of calcium and 400 IU of vitamin D daily, while those aged 7-12 months should receive 300 milligrams of calcium and 400 IU of vitamin D. These are the recommendations for ‘how to supplement calcium,’ hoping they will help you. Wishing you health!
