Question

At what age do you give & stop vitamin drops?

Answer 1

i gave them for a year and then stopped as my doctor said that the baby will get used to it.

Answer 2

The doc told me they weren't necessary, so I didn't give them, but I also breastfed the first 6 months or so.

Once he could chew really well, I started giving him Flintstones.

Answer 3

Until he can chew up the chewable kind well enough.

Answer 4

Blech... I hated using the vitamn drops... they made my son smell awful. He's 18 months old now and for the last 3 months I've been crushing up a chewable vitamin and mixing with acidic drinks (orange juice or a couple of ounces of Mountain Dew) in his sippy cup. It works well for us!

Answer 5

With our first daughter we gave drops until she turned 2.  Then we switched to "my first flinstones".  They are smaller than the regular flinstones and recommended for 2 year olds.
