Patient: I had a premature baby with Hypoglymecia detected at birth and he was under doctor observation wherein they applied some glucose and his RBS levels raised to normal in next 5 hrs. I wanted to know, if i have to care of monitoring his RBS regularly or it is cured completely Doctor: Thanks for consulting in Healthcare Magic. I congratulate you with a baby. Actually, premature babies are often have anaemia, because they didn't receive enough iron from mother. You should control hemoglobin, iron,calcium at your baby at least 1 time in month, pay attention to color of her skin , is it yellow or pale. Breastfeeding is golden standard for baby. Mother sshould also eat food, which reach of calcium- dates,Apple's, popomegranate, beets,carrot and proteinsBest regardsDr.Svetlana Shrivasta
