It is normal and common for young children to fall sick as they do not have a complete immune system before 5 years old. Before 5 years old, they received their immunity from external source like breastmilk, daily nutrition from balanced food after they start solids food. Lastly from internal source, where they build their immunity by fighting small illness like flu they caught or vaccinations. I will say 4.5 months is too young to introduce supplements. WHO recommend no other food/beverage other than breastmilk or formula milk should given to infants below 6 months if there is no underlying condition for the child. Water is not recommended too. You might want to try baby massage to improve your child's immunity. Just 5 to 10 minutes a day, it help to build the immunity as well as bonding too!
