Do you give your breastfed baby vitamin drops?

[haloflo]

Specifically vitamin D? My friend is a nutrition student and said that its recommended to give breastfed babies vitamin D drops. I asked the HV who said only sick or babies who don't eat well need them. Who is right? From googling it looks like the NHS line is to give them. If its so important then why has no one told me this until now then?!

DD is 10mo and a picture of health.

I give up. I have several times stated that experts can disagree - that no one has the monopoly on truth and that different countries may have, perfectly justifiably, different public health guidance. I have been open minded throughout, but you have insisted that only the AAP, and only your private paediatrician and only US public health guidance is correct.

I've reported your post, Rufus - I think you have been told before not to use mumsnet talkboards to promote commercial products.
