A member asked:

Is it okay to formula feed after the mother take post partum vitamin a?

A doctor has provided 1 answer
Dr. James Ferguson answered

What you chose to feed your infant is up to you. I see no reason not to breast feed if that is your usual pattern after taking a vitamin A supplement.
