she may out grow it as she gets older but if you are really concerned ask her ped what he/she thinks the next time you are in for a check up. You don't have to mention your concern about the lack of pre natal vits if you don't want but you may want to discuss your feelings about her weaker immune system

Personally I took all my prenatal vits and also made sure to eat a lot of foods that contain folic acid.

Dd has been pretty darn health.. well up until she started preschool last Novermber... ugh.

Preschool = little walking petri dishes.

What is your wife reason for refusing to take them?

She didn't feel it was necessary.

I did not take my prenatals either. I was constantly vommiting getting hospitalized and even in the hospital they didnt give them to me. I spent alot of time in the hospital.
I was always under the impression that the pre-natals were to keep woman from craving soap. Hmm

My daughter never really ever gets sick. though she does have some other problems but I chalk it up to the nemises and the bad birthing expierence.

Never heard that one.

I ritually took them and my son doesn't get sick often. But I think it doesn't have to do with that. Pre-natals are helping your body and the additional body that's inside of you because you have 'more body' to take care of.

Do you/did you have pets? My niece and nephew get sick ALL OF THE TIME and I think it has a lot to do with having pets.
