Good article on Vitamin D

"Newman argues that recommending vitamin D for every breastfed baby sends a message that breastfeeding is deficient. He also points out that many parents find the supplements expensive - a worthwhile expense in those situations where they are needed, but a waste of money if they are not. In addition, some babies don’t react well to the vitamin drops; one of McKellar’s friend’s daughters threw up every time she was given the supplement."
