My daughters pediatrician highly recommends my 4 month old take vitamins. I am still taking my prenatal vitamins and am breastfeeding. I am curious what other moms did at this age and if their baby took vitamins?
My son's pediatrician told me the same thing. I talked to my LC and she said that as long as I am taking my prenatal I do not need to give them to him until he is 6 months old. I still think it is weird because I have been around a lot of babies and never heard it before. But I am going to wait until he is 6 months old and then start.
I had two preemies and they have been taking Enfamil's Poly-Vi-Sol vitamins almost since birth. They don't mind them. I always had the impression it was a preemie thing though....
My doctor recommended vitamin D since she's not exposed to the sun very much. She said they can get vitamin D deficiencies later if not exposed to it now. I hated giving the poly-vi -Sol, so I bought just vitamin D drops through Amazon.
