Vitamins?

Does your toddler have vitamins? She’s been on cows milk since 11 months and I’ve never given her vitamins! Found out today that she should have been having them?? Do you give your toddler them and what is a good brand? She’s 18 months old!

That's right, she should be having them. I also didn't realise until my daughter was a bit older. I use the well baby one. It's liquid and you can mix in with her milk. Make sure you keep it in the fridge once opened. Boots often do deals on it.x

We give our toddler the wellbaby vitamin drops that you give straight out of the syringe. He gets on with them really well

We give flinstones plus extra iron because our girl is anemic but before we would do a regular gummy vitamin

It’s really not the end of the world, you don’t HAVE to give them! As long as she has a varied diet then all the vitamins will come from her diet! I don’t give my daughter additional vitamins, but I do buy ‘big milk’ by cravendale which has vitamins and Iron in it xx

I don’t give my toddler vitamins never really came to mind tbh. I never gave my older 3 children vitamins when they were young either and they are all good

I don’t give my girl vitamins. She’s 16 months old. She eats a varied diet so I’m not concerned

Tuesday best ones on the market are Biocare’s children multivitamin Mighty kids multivitamin Bioavailable & clean x

We just got back from our 2yo apt, and actually, the pediatrician shared that if they're eating a fairly balanced diet, there is no need to supplement with any vitamins. I had bought some too, and the pediatrician suggested we stop for now!

When I remember, I put the wellbably not the drops, in her weetabix/porridge.

Never did and for the most part i wont . Probiotics are good but other than that no ... Vitamin D they "need" since birth because it takes 6m for it to take effect... 5-20 mins of sun a day replaces 8 Vitamins(weeks!) in 5 mins of legit sun ... With a good diet they wont need anything fake ...

I’ve been giving my little one vitamins the day I put him on fresh milk, as they recommend it since cows milk doesn’t have the vitamins that their bodies need - I’ve always used the same brand which is the Wellbaby liquid, you can find them in any supermarket! Although I don’t give it to him directly, I just put in a drop or two in his milk x
