Do you give your baby vitamin D drops everyday?

lissah23 · June 2010

I'm not BFing anymore, but when I was I did give him Vitamin D every day.

JLG95 · June 2010

Every couple of days, when I remember. Embarrassed

No, never.

EMTX · June 2010

I EBFed until 5 mos. and never did.

for the 6 months he was ebf, yes. it was part of our bedtime routine. after his bath i'd lay him on his changing table and give him his vitamin. since we started solids we have been giving him a multivitamin with fluoride instead.

Nope. Still EBF and pedi has never mentioned it.

alybookgirl · June 2010

Nope. I take DD outside everyday. Pedi said 15 mins of sun every week is enough to get the vit D that she needs.

afilesi · June 2010

Nope...he is a fair-skinned little man so our Pedi said because we live in the South with plenty of sun he will get all he needs if we take him outside often. So we just make sure he gets a walk outside everyday (normally, weather permitting of course)

Nikibug · June 2010

Nope. Never even heard of doing this. Fill me in please!

Yes, our pedi told us to start at 2 months. We do the CVS brand without the added iron. She LOVES it. It's part of her bedtime routine as well, and when we pull out the vitamin bottle, she gets all excited and wiggly on the changing table. She recognizes it and is only too happy to take it...it's kinda weird!
