I think if she's stopped growing it's fine to go ahead but if you think she's still growing or still has some growing to do stick with the juvie routine for a while longer.

I would still offer it a couple times a week, unless they are getting a couple hours a week of natural / unfiltered sunlight. Even as adults.

Just my thought.

Well I'll put it another way then. How's this?

Your question:
When should I use calcium/multivitamins on a weekly basis she is 9 months old

My answer (amended somewhat):
Use calcium once or twice a week if she's done growing and, in my opinion, multvitamins once every couple of weeks depending on her diet. If you give her good food such as a salad full of good greens and veggies I'd only give multivitamins once every couple of weeks. Remember, this is my advice if she's done growing.

If she's still growing continue the juvie regimen of calcium 4-5 times a week and multivitamins 1-2 times a week.

If you're using the Trex superfoods none of the above applies.

I hope this helps clear things up. If not, too bad. Just kidding. if you ask nicely I'll try to explain it again using different wording.
