We tried to raise his iron levels through food but he doesn't like to eat red meat (makes me question if he's mine since I could eat a steak every day:) And other food options just didn't get those levels up enough. We gave him an iron supplement (liquid) but to be honest, it wasn't until we were diligent and gave it to him everyday for a 6 months (and not with calcium i.e. a glass of milk that we saw a big jump in the numbers. Currently, we give him a supplement once or twice a month. He will have his levels checked again in a few months - fingers crossed that they stay up. I don't remember the name of the liquid supplement but it was for kids and it could even be flavoured. It didn't seem to bother his stomach. Good luck!

My 5 year old we just found out has low iron and I am scrambling to figure out what to do about it and what all to feed him to try and get his levels up without messing up his stomach.
