Vitamin d drops?

Stowne101

My pedi has not mentioned anything about giving these while bfing? Who is using these?

We have given LO vitamin d drops since 2 weeks.

LO gets drops every day. Pedi talked about them, but we had already started giving them.

Yup! One drop a day since about two weeks old

My doctor (or maybe the LC) told us about the drops at the hospital. We picked them up on the way home, so she's had them since about two days.

We bought the kind where you give a full dropper for a dose, but I've heard about a Vitamin D concentrate where a single drop is the full dose. That is what we'll be buying when our first bottle runs out. This is what I'm talking about: https://www.amazon.com/Carlson-Laboratories-Super-Daily-Supplement/dp/B006J23VO0

I've given it three times since LO was born...
And I freaked out when I saw the one drop per day! I have the one that's one ml per day.

They recommended it when DS1 was a baby.  I hated the liquid stuff; he would spit it up and make a mess.  So I got these little vitamin d tabs that were better, but I always forgot to give them to him.  The same pedi never mentioned or asked about it with this baby, so I haven't bothered since I'll forget all the time anyway.

The hospital provided us with D drops and I took them with me. I give them most days (sometimes I forget though).

Carlson's is one kind that is a drop a day. So much easier than the whole syringe full!

We have been giving them since DS was about a week old.

This post reminded me that I am supposed to be giving her the drops and I have yet to pick them up. Demmit.

I bought then but keep forgetting to give them. He gets plenty of sun so I HIGHLY DOUBT he will get rickets regardless.

My pedi never said anything about it either. I never used them with DS either. ???

My pedi gave me samples of the single drop dose kind at their 8 week appointment. That was a week ago, and they've only had them once. I terrible at remembering to take things (the main reason I went with mirena)
