vitamin suggestions needed.

DS refuses different alternative vitamins, both chewables and gummy....even when squished into applesauce.

Also, unless I hide liquid vitamins in a heavily flavored drink (IE. Chocolate Milk) he will refuse liquid too.

DH wanted to start a new "project" yesterday ...to start DS on chewable (again), although I warned him of DS' refusal & extremly picky behavior. I'm afraid this project is turning into a power struggle more than anything.


He needs vitamins though, should I give him a nutritional supplement like Boost or Pediasure?

    I'm sorry.  We have a similar problem with DS1, but his feeding problems are gigantic and he won't drink anything besides plain milk.  The only way I could get him to take a vitamin (Flintstones chewable) was to get it worked into his feeding program at ABA therapy.  He'll take it at home now.
