Can I drop iron fortified infant cereal now?
« on: September 20, 2006, 23:27:40 pm »
Hi my lo is 11 months now. I was wondering if it's alright to stop giving my lo the iron-fortified rice cereal now? Or do I still need to continue? I was thinking of giving him oatmeal, eggs, or other things that todlers eat. Any suggestions?

Thanks for the information. So stopping the infant iron foritied cereal won't affect his iron levels?

At this age they should be getting their iron source from food.
