[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I used to give Vit D drops back when we drank unfortified milk. Now we drink the store bought grass milk that has A and D added. I give a Renzo's Picky Eaters chewable. Full dose is 2 tablets a day. I give 1 tablet maybe 2-3x/week just to help cover our bases. He's usually a good eater, but we do go through busy periods where we eat cheeseburger dinners or pancake lunches a little too often. After sports once a week or so he gets a protein shake. Kid is 8.[/quote] I use this one too. For my 3 year old, the does is half a vitamin, and for my 6 year old, the dose is 2 vitamins. I normally just give 1/2-1 pill per kid. 3 year old used to be slightly anemic, and doctor recommend vitamin d for all kids, so it's easier just to give everyone a multivitamin that has both vitamin d and iron (and what our ped recommended for ease). Anything extra might help, but isn't hurting them.[/quote]
