How do you give your infant vitamins?
I've had them for a few days now and haven't given them to him yet b/c to be honest, I keep forgetting. Do you do it in a bottle? In cereal? by itself? before or after bottle?
TIA

Re: How do you give your infant vitamins?
I put it in the last bottle before bed. It's easier for me to remember that way. If DD doesn't take all of her bottle, I don't stress about it.

Re: How do you give your infant vitamins?
I just use the dropper, hold DS down on the changing table, and squeeze them in. I do them right after bathtime, before I brush his teeth.

yea, I think I have to make it a consistent part of a routine either morning or bed.

Re: How do you give your infant vitamins?
I haven't given them as I looked at the ingredients and there is artificial crap in there so while I am researching other options he hasn't gotten any yet. I would imagine just giving it to them straight from the dropper might be best.
