re: Do you use vitamins at all?

Vitamins can be just as dangerous if they don't need it.

<blockquote><b>Quoting Kristen Parris:</b>" I would definitely giver her some vitamin with iron in it! Babies around her age often have iron deficiency ...

She is still getting 40oz of formula a day too. Whole milk twice a day only. This is why I need to see the Dr. Lol but are appointment is not till.after she is one. Lol

Uhhh well of course. Too much of anything is bad for you. Just dont use too much~ and don't give her anything she doesn't need. But a multivitamin would not hurt at all.

I would think she would be fine then. my son never drank 40 oz of formula! lol at most he drank 32 a day and that was the only thing he ate/drank! I wouldn't worry about it until you see your doctor and they test her for anemia. They did that for my son at his 9 month app. If she does happen to have it it is very easily corrected.

Ya. I just worry. Lol I have never had any of my kids tested at any age here. Lol I guess they would if the pedi thought they were.

Ya, her last appointment was at 9 months and they said to go.a head and start some whole milk since she was at 40-50oz of formula a day, and he wanted to have that intake brought down by her next appointment.

To 24-32oz and the rest whole milk. But she never went down at all. But the whole milk is not filling to her, she will drink 8oz and HR later drink 10oz of formula. But if she only drinks her formula she is good for 3 hrs. I don't get it. Lol

I thought milk would be more filling.

Is 50oz of formula a day a bad thing or something? My son has at least 50oz per day, hasn't started anything else yet.

Idk really.

He said at that age its recommended to have between 16-32 oz a day when on foods. Which she is solely on table foods plus her formula and milk. So I am guessing maybe its too much or its not normal not sure.

Oh, well he isn't on any solid table food yet, so maybe that's the difference.
