Just an addition to the discussion about vitamins.. "Breastfeeding Medicine" 
the journal of the Academy of Breastfeeding Medicine,  has several articles 
about maternal supplementation with high dose vitamin D as a way to improve 
the vitamin D staus of both mom and baby.  

Maternal vitamin D dosing seems like a very feasible and beneficial way to 
improve vitamin D status.  The first journal is available for free.  The link to the 
vitamin D artcile in that issue is

I have been recommending this dosing for moms in my practice.
