vegan advice

I am a vegan and although I am 'happy' for hubby and nursery to give my LO whatever, I will be giving her vegan food as much as possible. My question is, how do I give her iodine? Can I get iodine supplement drops from Holland and Barratt for example? I think I can cover everything else...any other vegans out there with tips?

Seaweed has iodine in it. You can get it as a seasoning, buy it dried from the Oriental supermarket to use in stews and stir fries, make vegan sushi with the sheets. Crumple it into salads. Yum.
