Vitamin & Mineral Supplementation for Breast-fed Infants

•Vitamin D - vitamin D supplementation is generally recommended for healthy breast-fed infants during the first 4-6 months to reduce risk of rickets •Iron - at 4-6 months the infant generally requires iron from an additional source (iron fortified cereal, supplementation, etc.). Prior to 4-6 months iron supplementation is generally not recommended and could affect absorption of iron from breast milk. •Fluoride - supplementation is not required up until 6 months and may be needed as a supplement thereafter. •Water soluble vitamins - breast milk reflects mother's intake.
