February 24, 2006, Newsletter Issue #73: MYTH-Breastfeeding babies need extra Vitamin D

Tip of the Week

Breastfeeding babies may need extra Vitamin D only in extraordinary circumstances. For example, if the mother herself was Vitamin D deficient during the pregnancy. The baby stores Vitamin D during the pregnancy, and a little outside exposure, on a regular basis, gives the baby all the Vitamin D he/she needs.
