I'm so glad that Dr. Karen Morin is writing an infant nutrition column in MCN!!

I have a suggestion for a future column. Parents ask me a lot of questions about over-the-counter vitamins. Some want to give megadoses, some want to give Flintstones chewable. Some want to give vitamin C to prevent colds. I try to find out what the children are eating before I make recommendations. Would she consider doing a column on vitamins for children? When they are needed? What are the guidelines for OTC vitamins? Any information would be helpful.
