Multivitamins
Hi all!
Anyone know if there’s any vitamins we need to avoid when breastfeeding?
I have some normal multivitamins in the house from before being pregnant but they say the usual ‘check if pregnant or breastfeeding’ malarkey but I keep forgetting to ask at the pharmacy/ doctors. Does anyone know as I’d like to take them if they’re ok!

The only one I was aware of being an issue was vitamin A and I think that was just in pregnancy so might not have been an avoid for bf anyway x
@Indy thank you!! Will give them a go then! Yeah my little one gets her vit d drops too 😊
@Freya thanks!!! X
Be careful as I have read that some of them can change the taste of milk when BF, especially fish oil ones I think

Hi! I take the boots breastfeeding supplements which has all of those vitamins in higher doses so should be fine! I do have to say though, my ones just say vitamin D rather than 2 and 3, but my baby has the well baby drops which contain vitamin D also x
