Over the last 4 months my poor DS has constatly had a cold, cough, virus, etc etc

He has had 3 courses of antibiotics since he was born. The doctor is now concerned over his weight as the poor lad has lost his appetite. When well, he is a good eater, but over the last few months he doesnt eat too well to be honest, he just want milk in his bottle.

Can anyone recommend some kind of supplement he could take, or anything that may boost his immune. I dont want to have to resort to not taking him to playgroups etc.

Thanks

i wouldnt start giving vitamin supplements to a baby without medical advice.vitamin A,D,E,K and B12 are stored in the liver and can cause problems if they have too much.the doc can prescribe dalavit if he thinks it is a problem
