vitamin question

sweetpea18

Reese was put on a multivitamin when we left the hospital.  We were instructed to give it to her in 20cc of breastmilk, burp her and then give her the rest of her bottle.  When we burp her, it all seems to come up.  (The stuff is nasty looking and smelling, so its no wonder she spits it up!)  I'm wondering if I need to give it to her in 2 doses instead of one big one?!? has anyone else had this problem?!?  I'm waiting to hear back from the pedi but any advice would be appreciated!

For a long time we had to split Brandon's vitamin up between 2 bottles. I put it in an ounce each time to disguise the taste. Now that he is a little older I can give him it in one two ounce bottle and he keeps it down fine.

We give DS .5 ml every 12 hours in either an ounce of BM or water.  He does seem to spit some of it up too!

We just squirt it into his mouth - he used to hate it and now at 13 months, gets excited for it!

My little guy gets .5 ml and I give it to him with about 20-30 ml of BM to make sure he drinks it all. ?The burps after are really gross! ?:-/ ?
