Dea Tania pls follow the doc advice, the bby is too small to tolerate sunlight so its usually not advisable. Thats de reason docs advise vitamin D drops to bby till 1 year. So dont worry.

Normally sunlight is good for the baby but if the doc said don't . .then please don't . . If you have any doubts , please clarify them with your doc and discuss why you can't keep the baby in the sun

Sunlight is very important as its a natural source of vitamin <u>D</u>.. Please ensure that you provide sufficient amount of morning sunlight to ur baby as it will be helpful for the rest of his life as well
