For those who no longer get bottles, when do you give vitamins?
Roman is officially done with his nighttime bottle but I always put his vitamins in it. What should I do now? I never really know when he'll drink all of his sippy cup at once so i want to make sure he still gets what he needs. How long do they stay on liquid vitamins?

How old is your baby? Can you just squirt the vitamin drops in his mouth?

this what we've done from the beginning since the Dr. told us not to take the vitamins at the same time as milk.
when I finish this bottle of liquid we move onto chewables.

He is 17 months. I guess I could try squirting it in his mouth but God they are so yucky smelling I can't even imagine how they taste.
His Dr. told me to mix with formula/milk that's odd.

Who knows, he may like it! lol Does he eat table food? I've been giving my son flintstone gummy vitamins since he was 14 months old. I just had to get a prescription for this other lil chewable pill (folic acid maybe?) for him to take along with it but my ped said that was fine.

I also do this, but I do it in her bath. My ped told me that the drops stain and won't come out of clothes. At first she didn't like it, but now if I forget to give it to her she points to it.
