I’ll look into those mentioned! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-kid-take-a-multi-vitamin#post-2920850 Sun, 15 Nov 2020 19:27:14 +0000 SweetCaroline 2920850@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DD takes Flintstone multi. I may try to find a more natural option after this bottle is gone. I don't buy gummy vitamins for several reasons (though I know they are a great option for many!) and chewable tablets aren't as prominent. </p> <p>DD also takes Vitamins D and C. We all used to take elderberry syrup, but cut that out this year as I believe the risk in regards to immune response to COVID outweighs any potential benefits. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-kid-take-a-multi-vitamin#post-2920848 Sun, 15 Nov 2020 18:18:52 +0000 autumnleaves 2920848@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mine take little critters or target brand multi vitamin plus smartypants probiotic chews. I occasionally switch out the little critters/target ones with mega foods multi vitamin chews. They have stayed fairly healthy this past year with this so I am continuing with it though doctors said a multi vitamin isn’t needed in the past. I tried elderberry syrup with them in the past and they still would get ear infections, colds, strep, etc. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-kid-take-a-multi-vitamin#post-2920845 Sun, 15 Nov 2020 15:09:19 +0000 muffinsmuffins 2920845@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, we all do this year. 6yo takes the Costco gummy multi vitamin with an additional flintstones gummy vitamin D and a Jamison elderberry and vitamin C gummy. 2yo takes Sisu U-cube multi gummy and vitamin D drop (hard to find vitamins for under age 3, I’ve found)</p> <p>I know every doctor in existence is like nope waste of money and unnecessary but it makes me feel better, especially with Covid, that we are trying to boost immune systems particularly with the vitamin D. All the adults also take the vitamin C and elderberry, vitamin D, multi and omegas. BUT, make sure they do a good job brushing their teeth after the gummies...6yo has 3 cavities to be filled 😬😬😬 </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-kid-take-a-multi-vitamin#post-2920844 Sun, 15 Nov 2020 15:06:44 +0000 bhbee 2920844@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We use the target brand gummies also, and my 2 year old takes the target brand chewable. I agree with above, I feel they’re better than nothing and they take them without issue. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-kid-take-a-multi-vitamin#post-2920841 Sun, 15 Nov 2020 12:53:26 +0000 catgirl 2920841@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DD typically takes the Cvs brand gummies or target brand gummies. She also takes a fiber gummy. I know the gummy ones aren’t the best for kids, but she takes them without issue and I feel like they are better than nothing. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-kid-take-a-multi-vitamin#post-2920840 Sun, 15 Nov 2020 12:41:20 +0000 pinkb 2920840@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes. We did flinstone ones for awhile but my picky DS stopped liking them. He is a super picky eater. So we switched to the target brand gummies. I just tried the sundown natural gummies since we ran out and they have been deemed gross by DS, so back to target ones. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-kid-take-a-multi-vitamin#post-2920819 Sat, 14 Nov 2020 16:45:18 +0000 wrkbrk 2920819@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If yes, would you drop me the name/type? </p> <p>I think I want to get one for DS (almost 5) because his diet isn’t the best and he has those little white dots on his fingernails that could indicate lack of vitamins. Ped has said it’s not necessary but I’m going to ask her again.<br /> Thanks!! </p>
