Vitamin D?

I have been giving dd vitamin d drops for a year now. She just turned 1 and we are now weaning and switching to cows milk. How much longer should I be giving the drops? Until she has completely weaned?

Re: Vitamin D?

  • My understanding is that since milk is fortified with vitamin D you don't have to continue the drops.
  • My DS is 3 and he still gets the drops.  Vit D is vital to your immunity and most ppl are deficient in it, so we err on the side of caution and we all take drops.

  • No help here...never gave them to any of my kids. However, if LO is eating a balanced diet and consuming WCM...I would no longer give them.
