Vitamin D drops can be obtained that have a coconut oil or olive oil base
and these only require one drop on the nipple for baby to suck off. The
pharmaceutical version of Vit D drops also have food coloring dyes in them.
My group moms often ask about Vit D so I researched brands for contents.
Wondering why baby needs D so early? Why contaminate the infant gut so
early with anything other than breastmillk?
