My LO is 9 months two weeks and has dropped her lunch time bottle in the last few days. She’s now on around 15oz a day and I read online that she should be having a multivitamin now her formula intake has decreased. Is this the case and does anyone recommend a particular one?

I believe they can go onto a multi vitamin at 6 months when they start solids however, they should get most of what they need from their food (should be on 3 meals by now) and formula is normally already fortified. If they drink a minimum of 500ml formula a day, they’ll get their daily intake.
It’s more for breastfed babies, as they also don’t get iron, another thing that formula is fortified with.
