A mother with coeliac disease is breastfeeding her week-old baby very successfully. She has been taking ferrous sulphate, folic acid and calcium supplements throughout her pregnancy and wishes to know whether she should continue with these during breastfeeding. Her Hb is being checked tomorrow. I thought she would probably need to continue the calcium but would appreciate input form someone who has experience in this field. Had a quick look in the archives but only found stuff about babies with coeliac.
