Children have adequate iron stores for the first four to six months of life.
In my practice I like to add a poly-vitamin at two months of age that has iron in it. Because I will forget to switch at four months or six months. It's just a quirk of my practice. Nutritionally these newborns need 120 calories per kilogram per day. Formula has 20 calories per ounce.
