Vitamin D drops 11 month old formula fed

[19annie86]

When is it you give your baby vitamin d drops, I think I remember health visitor saying once they are taking less than 18oz of formula?

Also how do you give them, do you add them to the milk

We use boots own brand or Abidec, whichever is in stock, I draw up the amount using a Calpol syringe as most are 5ml doses, both mine don't mind the taste but you can add it to drinks if needed. I believe they are only needed if baby is having less than 600ml of formula a day

When they drop below 500ml of formula so yeah roughly 18oz.

Not sure if it's the same for all drops but the ones I use from Holland and Barrett say give them directly to baby, in food, in formula, on a dummy. Basically anyway you can get it in 'em 😉

Would they still take the drops once they start drinking cows milk at 12 months

Yes, that's when both mine started having it
