My little guy is 6 months old and still receives most of his nutrition from breast milk. I'm wondering how long you continued to give Vit D drops, when did you stop?
-
As I recall our pediatrician told us to give it to him as long as his primary milk was breast milk. We gave it through one year while I was still nursing.
-
I kept giving it to him until he turned one and transitioned to Milk.
-
We never did the drops.

Xander's 9 months and still gets the vitamin D drops! Though I'm bad about doing it every day... bad Mama...
-
we stopped during summer months and quickly thereafter he was on solids full time and we never picked it back up (he was 7-8 months?)
he's on almond milk+solids now so we won't be supplementing this winter.

@Adira: me too- this thread reminded me of them and I felt guilty. I wasn't strict in the summer since we were out in the sun a lot but need to be better now. It will be a while before she's getting any nutrients from food even after we start solids in a month or two.
