When I took my daughter to the doctor's they recommended that I gave her an iron supplement because twice the reading when they tested her blood was a little low my mom is totally against it and is overly controlling that I shouldn't give her the supplement because according to her it tastes nasty.... smh I don't care that it tastes nasty and want what is best for my daughter what should I do?? I'm going to definitely start giving her more leafy green foods but this 🤦♀️

We got Flintstone vitamins with iron. Your little might not be old enough for those, though. Good luck!

If you do give get the supplement it mighy constipate her so watch out for that. But if the doctor recommended it I would definatly listen to them over your mother I am anemic and your iron can mess with your whole body

My daughter was also low at 2 years old. We started giving her vitamins and she’s as healthy as can be, and also loves her daily gummie💕 And wow your mom is sure crossing a line!

I’m anemic and my daughter also struggles with iron! We do a lot of peanut butter and refried beans. It helps if you couple it with something with Vitamin C to absorb more iron like strawberries or oranges

@mamachey she drinks whole milk in between meals and 1 bottle of juice a day

@penelopesmama she hasn't eaten peanut butter yet
