multi-vitamins for breastfed babies

[notabigdeal]

Hi all, my boy is 8 months old now. I've started him on solids at 6months. Usually he''ll take brown rice porridge with bits of meat n veg on week days, twice a day. Weekends, it'll be instant cereal with veggie.
Occasion fruits for snacks.

Do I need to supplement him with iron or multi vitamins? Please advise.

I think even he eat enough need also multi vitamins or iron, so that strong and healthy.

if in that's my case i will not give multi vitamins or iron coz breast milk have many vitamins already from the mother.

No need multi or vitamins because as a mummy i believe that when we make breastfeed we have lots of vitamins.

Breast milk required its the best of all then in any milk, so u don't need multi or iron because its lot of vitamins already.

When my baby is 6 months old and i let her start giving real food, i let her take multi and iron.
to grow and gain more supplements.
