Do you give vitamin D supplements to your breastfed baby?

[joshandjamie]

See this - I breastfed both my children and had never, ever heard of this. Am I the only one in the dark? Have to say, I'm not overly bothered about it. Both children are thriving but I just wondered if this was something all mums know about and I just somehow missed the lesson on this in antenatal classes!

I was told to give vitamin D here in Holland, although to be honest I usually forget. I do have a bit of an issue with the drops too - they are mainly sugar! Sometimes the top sticks on and I have to wash off the sugary crust with hot water. I've tried them myself and they are really very sweet.
