Vitamins

chiredhead, thanks for posting,

We do not know much about this supplement, but all of these vitamins and elements exceed the RDA. I spoke with Dr Hale about this and he said it would probably be ok in your situation since your baby is older and you are only breastfeeding 1-2 times a day. We recommend taking this supplement after you breastfeed so there is a longer break period before you breastfeed again. Monitor the baby for flushing, and GI upset. I hope this helps, if you have any other questions please call the InfantRisk Center at 806-352-2519. Thanks
