1 year old refusing most solids and anemic
Hi
My DD will be 1 year old next week. Her recent blood work came back that she was low on hemoglobin count and so her pediatrician prescribed iron drops for her. She is a very poor eater and doesn't eat very much solids and is on expressed breastmilk. I had a few questions that i was hoping to get some answers for. 1) Can i put the iron drops in the expressed breastmilk or will that interfere with the absorption. I know that iron is absorbed well with vit C but if i were to give her 4oz of juice, i am afraid she will decrease her milk intake 2) Could it be possible that her low apetite is due to her low iron? She is refusing even milk these days, i think its because of a bit of thrush she has as well as her front top two teeth are cutting as well. Any advice or information would be very much appreciated.
