Vitamins

What type of vitamins would you give your one year old? Our doctor prescribed some but my daughter hates them!

I don't know...I was told that u shouldn't give them until 2.. but I guess just a gummy multivitamin made for kids. Maybe if its in a candy like form the kid will like it better

@kayleigh27 I'm going to look into that, thanks!

walmarr has them I think but I know GNC has a bigger selection of kid friendly vitamins

May I ask why he prescribed them? Do you have a picky eater, a FTT infant, etc.

You can totally tell me none of my business and I'll understand.

Don't do gummie vitamins, they're full of sugar and really bad for your kids teeth. A chewable that dissolves is much better.

My Dr said just the drops until she's 2

@Homebirthadvocate I'm going to look into those, thanks!
@Mijita Not sure, didn't really question her.
@starrxoxo9 Do your drops taste really bitter? I tried them and hated them so I really don't blame my baby for spitting it out.

Idk I've never tasted them lol. I actually haven't gotten any since Tessa just went off formula a few weeks ago. I keep forgetting lol bad mommy. I'm sure she'll hate them so I'll probably just mix it into a little juice or something lol.

monkey_girl

@starrxoxo9 LOL! If it's the same one juice won't help. I gave them to her for like two days and stopped BAD mommy too! Oh well I'll have to discuss with the doctor on our next visit.

I think as long as they're eating a balanced diet the vitamins aren't really crucial lol

I give my lo vitamins, but he's extremely picky. He went from not wanting to eat anything at all, to barely eating all day, and I don't want to force him. The vitamins don't taste bad at all

@EricaK22 oooo which vitamins do you give him?

EricaK22
