Hi can a 10 weeks old baby take seven seas oil? A doctor recommended it but a pharmacist said it’s not okay. Now I am confused and it was recommended because my baby is having problems with the cold.

If your doctor recommended it then it would be okay but the reason why the pharmacist had reservations is that generally supplements are not recommended before 6 months because of the danger of overloading the baby’s kidneys. Little ones are usually able to fight colds especially if you are breastfeeding as your breast milk has all the antibodies needed to fight the cold, you could manage the symptoms by asking your doctor for some saline drops to clear the blocked nose, keep the baby warm and breast feed often, baby should be fine in a few days.
