My 2 older girls have reduced their milk intake from 3 glasses a day to only 1 glass a day about a year ago. Worried that they would not be getting enough of calcium, I got them these calcium milk chew from Abbott. It tastes very much like chocolate and my 3 girls are crazy over them. They think it’s chocolate sweets and would pester me for it a few times a day. Fortunately the cap is child-proof and Baby doesn’t know how to open it yet. She would bug me to remove the cap for her the whole day. Last night, Alycia took out one calcium chewy and left it on my computer desk. Baby who is super observant quickly snatched the chewy away just when I wasn’t looking, removed the wrapper and popped the chewy into her mouth!! Alycia and Sherilyn had discovered the trick of opening the cap and now have been helping themselves to these calcium milk chewies everyday. I must hide this bottle of calcium chewies before they pop them all up in a day! It’s frigging expensive at RM48 for a bottle of 40 soft chewies.
good idea! just out of curiosity since sher’s kinda constipated, does this affect her? coz when i was pregnant and had to take the calcium pills, it made me more constipated.
No wor, it didn’t cause Sher any constipation. But for Baby, I suspect the chocolate from either her chocolate milk formula or from this chewy is causing her to be constipated. But it’s my suspicion only. I must stop feeding her with choco milk and this choco chewy and see if she can poop easily.
