My daughter is 16 months and has a condition that doesnt let her gain weight as much as she should so she has been on pediasure since she was 12 months old she used to drink two a day but then she gained way to fast so we have found that one a day right before bed keeps her weight steady like it should be and it helps her sleep through the night and she loves the vanilla, strawberry and she likes the chocolate but it doesnt settle well with her tummy.
