I gave uprise d3 60k to my wife and she is lactating mother my baby is 7months old will it harm my baby and my baby is taking vitanova 3 should i stop it for the time being plz suggest i am worried?

Don't worry: Current guidelines recommend 400IU Vit D3 supplementation directly to the baby per day. Other Research shows that high dose maternal vitamin D supplementation (4000-6400 IU/d or a single monthly dosage of 150,000 IU) can enrich breastmilk adequately for infants. Not sure what you mean by 60K (60,000IU?), but even one large dose on one day is not going to hurt your baby.
