I wouldn’t recommend giving vitamins to a baby unless there’s a confirmed deficiency diagnosed through a blood test and your doctor has advised supplementation. According to the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP), most healthy, full-term babies get all the nutrients they need from breast milk or formula in the first year of life. Babies’ bodies are still developing, and their kidneys and liver are immature, meaning they process substances differently than adults. Overloading them with unnecessary vitamins or supplements could put extra strain on these organs. Unless medically necessary, it’s best to let their natural diet support their growth.
I use Mary Ruth but the red one. My son wa slow on iron and I don’t want to give the prescription his doctor gave me it was a hard iron pill so we supplemented with a multivitamin instead I made the mistake of not knowing that calcium combats the absorption of iron rich foods
I use Smarty Pants multivitamin gummy’s they have the top rating what I’ve read
Yup we give ours a liquid multivitamin and probiotics because he has a limited diet.
