Baby didn’t take vitamin D
No one told me that babies need to take vitamin d drops everyday!!! My baby is over 4 months now and never took any drops! I only found out because my mum asked me yesterday if he has any and then I asked my gp today at the vaccine appointment and she casually said it’s very important to take them! We bought some now but he didn’t have any vitamin d up until now, reading online it scares me because it says 4 months is too late to start now I’m so worried but no gp or anyone told me 😅 I was just told to take vitamin d supplements as I am breastfeeding but Aparently that’s not enough online

It’ll be okay! I didn’t know til very late, like until we started weaning and she gets it from diet/ being outside mostly now anyways! I’m sure your baby got plenty of natural vitamin D during the summer! Literally 5- 30 minutes of sunlight (obvs not when its super harsh direct sunlight) gives them what they need!
wait my baby is 5 months and no one has ever told me this!
Glad to hear that 😫 I started today I’ll be consistent with it!
@Rylee 😭😭😭 just start now as well it’s better late than never I guess 😫
My girl is nearly 8 months now and she point blank refused to take anything so she's never had it x

Don’t beat yourself up. Lots of people don’t know! Baby will get small amounts in the breastmilk you’re right, but just start giving drops now. I forget some days (also EBF).
