if your baby is eating well there is no need to give the Nutracal unless you see signs of hypoglycemia.. if you give it to them daily and they don't need it, it can possibly make them go into diabetes because it gets the glucose levels very unstable. keep it on hand for those times when she might get sick and stop eating and things like that. Also, i give only a small amount. just the tip of my index finger. i am well aware that others do it different but as a breeder, that is my recommendation and also that of other breeders on the board. you have to be careful with Nutracal.
