He takes fish pills willingly! (It took 2 years 3 mos)

[Guest guest]

I just wanted to let everyone know that my son who is now 4 years 8 mos

takes his fish oil and vitamin E pills willingly! He is now able to

chew them and then spit out the capsule completely chewed up and flat!

This child of mine would run, spit, do anything to avoid his

supplements. He is a resistent eater so I could not hide it in anything.

I cannot tell you how happy I am not to have to squeeze those pills

into an infant medicine syringe with a pin and have him topless (so he

doesn't stink up another shirt) and have a paper towel ready for the

inevitable drip that made it's way out!!!

Dreams do come true! LOL! I'm living the dream!

Sincerely,

Debra, homeschooling mom of 4 ages 11, 10, 8, and 4

Actually we have stopped the coconut oil since we ran out. I think it

is just giving fish oils long terms and also I bought a new vitamin

called " Animal Parade VitaGels With EPA & DHA " . We keep them in the

fridge because here in FL oils can go rancid quickly with our heat.

At therapy he chews the softgels which get rather hard and it gives

him input (imput I forget which one it is!) for ST! They are strongly

cherry flavored. The fish oils I give him are the Omega 3 6 9 Juniors

which never get hard but he'll chew them and swallow the oils after

the cherry vitamins!

(I know the Nordic Naturals Omega 3 6 9 Juniors is half the adult

dose but if he'll take them them I'll pay the extra money!)
