Guest guest Posted October 30, 2006 Report Share Posted October 30, 2006 Dear Everyone, Thank you again for all the great info. We just found out Kyle is already anemic. As someone pointed out preemies have trouble with iron stores. His digestive system is 6 months old, not 3 months (his adjusted age), and the iron in my milk is probably going down so he's ready for iron-fortified cereal. He's been eating it for over a week now and just loves it! He's getting an iron supplement now and we'll continue to give him that if he needs it, rather than giving him meat. I educated his doctor on the subject and she seems much more on-board with it now. Once again, I appreciate all the info and hope he does well on a vegetarian diet! all the best, Amy :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
