Newborn & Baby

Once your baby is six months old, and up until they are 5 years, daily vitamin A, C and D supplements are recommended (unless they're having 500ml or more of first infant formula each day). When you buy your baby vitamin supplements, make sure you read the label to check they are age appropriate.

Babies who are being breastfed should be given a daily vitamin D supplement from birth, whether or not you're taking a supplement containing vitamin D yourself.
