Can i take centrum women multivitamin /multimineral supplement while breastfeeding a 8 month old baby?

Sure. Many providers recommend prenatal vitamins while breastfeeding, if insurance/financially feasible. But a standard adult vitamin should be fine to supplement a healthy and well rounded diet.
