Giving anything to an infant every day can be challenging. You may have an active baby, and there are times when your infant is fussy, Thankfully Baby Ddrops® is designed to make administration easy.
Baby Ddrops® is specifically designed for breastfed babies. If you are breastfeeding simply place just one drop of Ddrops® right where baby feeds. When they latch on and start to suck they will get their vitamin D easily. If this is a bit challenging, try placing the tiny drop onto a clean fingertip and then let the baby suck the finger for a few seconds.
Ddrops® products are should be dropped onto a clean surface first rather than dropped directly into the mouth. This safe method prevents the Euro Ddropper™ from becoming contaminated by avoidable contact with the mouth. This method also allows for easy monitoring and visibility of the number of drops being dispensed prior to a child taking in the product. Most babies prefer liquid so because the drop is such a small amount (0.028mL) and based in a fractionated coconut oil it makes it nearly impossible for the baby to spit it out once it has been consumed.
Still having trouble? Try some of these tips:
- Babies need a liquid administration. Once you have the drop on your finger try placing it on the inside of your baby’s cheek, and it should be swallowed without a struggle.
- A shallow plastic medicine teaspoon is calibrated which may make it easier to use than a regular teaspoon. This is available for purchase at most pharmacies.
- Use the upper lip sweep, sweeping the spoon against the inside of your baby’s lip as you pull the spoon from your baby’s mouth.
- Use your middle or index finger to pull out the corner of the baby’s mouth, making a pocket in the cheek.
- Place just one drop on a clean fingertip or spoon and place it inside the cheek pocket.
- If your baby is starting to eat solids, simply place just one drop onto a clean spoonful of baby food.
- We do not recommend placing the drop into a bottle, because if the feed isn’t finished, the drop may get left behind.
We hope these tips help you to ensure that your baby is getting the vitamin D they need, just one drop at a time! If you have any further questions, please don’t hesitate to contact healthcare@vitaminddrops.com. We will be more than happy to help with any questions you may have.
