I upped my vitamin d daily as per a class I took with Aeroflow. The instructor said she ups her to about 6300/6500(I can’t remember which) instead of doing the drops. I take 4000 plus my vitamin drink mixes so I’m getting a good amount. I’m just curious what other moms do or if they’ve been told other info? I will discuss with ped at his next appt!

My pediatrician told me to give my baby vitamin D drops as long as the baby consumes breastmilk because no matter how much vitamin D that mom takes, it does not travel well through breastmilk. I had accidentally overdosed on vitamin D because my prenatal and DHA had it so it is possible to take too much. I would suggest go with the vitamin D drops.
Ok good to know! I knew baby got some but didn’t know it didn’t travel well like you said. Thank you! So glad I asked!
