Vitamins & Medications

I've always given Swe-cha his vitamins and medications by mixing it in w/ his milk. This works most of the time because there's very little resistance from him so it's easy. Unfortunately, this isn't always the best method because he doesn't always finish the milk and you can't just put a little milk because then, he'll taste the vitamins / medication and he'll start spitting it out.

Lately, I've been giving him his meds by mouth (direct) because I wanted to make sure that he gets the full dose. He used to throw up a few months ago when given medications by mouth but he's been very good about it lately so today, on a whim, I decided to try and give him his vitamins directly too. I was tired of mixing it in w/ his morning bottle & then only hope that he will finish it all. Daming sayang because his morning milk intake is really unpredictable. He can take between 0 to 6oz before he leaves for daycare.

So far, we've successfully give him the following w/o having to mix w/ any drink:

- Vitamins: Multivitamins w/ Fluoride, Ceelin, Cherifer

- Medications: PediaCare (Acetamenophen), Advil (Ibuprofen), Mylicon & GasX (Simethicone), Omnicef (Antibiotics)
