Does your 2 year old take vitamins?

If so, are they prescription or OTC?

Thanks!

absolutely

When we lived in queens, we were giving OTC vitamins. When we moved to LI we were given a prescription vitamin with fluoride from the pediatrician.

Our 18mo gets a liquid and our 2.5 yo gets a chewable

eta - we were told when ds turns 2 he can get the chewable too

He takes a prescription multi-vitamin that the ped wrote us for. He takes that once a day. It is liquid and he takes it so well, he actually gets excited to take it, so that works.

I also give him a DHA and fish oil liquid vitamin from The Honest Company.

Yes, DS started taking one that our ped gives us an rx for. When DD is 1, she will start on one, too.

Re: Does your 2 year old take vitamins?

Absolutely. She's such a picky eater

She takes two, both animal parade chewable.
One is a multivitamin, the other is a green vitamin made up of spinach, kale, etc bc she def does not eat enough veggies

She LOVES them

We always forgot to give her the prescription one, we suck so now she gets the frozen gummy one and an elderberry one. She takes it every day when I take mine and even reminds me when I don't give it to her since it's frozen and she's obsessed.

My 2 YO DD takes a gummy multi with my other 2, and has for a while now.

Can I ask you what green vitamin you give? My DS really needs something like that, it's torture feeding him lol.

Do you know what the chewable fluoride is? DD has the liquid for fluoride, which is a pain and harder to remember to give now that she's older and not on bottles. We have a rx chewable with fluoride but it's not gummy so she won't take them.

No. I asked the doctor about them and he said it's not necessary.
