@chowmikki I took the prenatal vitamins prescribed to me as well as the iron supplement. She did not get vitamin D drops after birth. Vitamin D is always available but she wasn't diagnosed until two. She was breastfed exclusively until about one and a half. Being a nursing student, I did learn that vitamin D does not pass through the milk enough to supply the infant adequately but obviously I learned that too late.
@chowmikki I did give her the polyvisol multivitamin drops but the vitamin D in it wasn't enough. Currently, her legs do not bow any more as if she was never bow legged.
Why did you not take Vit D during pregnancy. Did your daughter get the vit D drops after birth? Or was vit D not available?
