Breast fed babies

Do you give them Vit D drops? I exclusively pump so should I mix it in the bottle, or just give it straight?

If you don't give it do you think they don't need it, or why don't you?

I mix it into his first morning bottle every day. For moms who exclusively nurse, I imagine they just give DC the dropper directly.

Exactly. I just squirted the dropper into her mouth.

I use Carlson Vitamin D Drops and you just have to put a drop of it either on your nipple or the nipple of the bottle and make sure the baby sucks for at least 30 seconds. There is no flavor to it and it's all natural. You can buy it at whole foods. DS hated the Di-Vi-Sol he gagged on it. He takes this with no problem.

Thanks for this info! I give Di-Vi-Sol, and now dd is used to them, but the 1st time I gave her the dropperful in her mouth, she choked on it! :(. She is 3 months now, and takes it like a champ, but I always forget to give them. I like the sounds of what you give much better!
