As a parent, you want to make sure your little one is getting proper nourishment and nutrition. That includes vitamin D, a very important nutrient for babies. As breast milk alone doesn’t provide enough vitamin D for babies, breastfed infants and those who are partially breastfed will need vitamin D supplementation to help boost immunity, build healthy and strong bones, and prevent diseases like rickets.

🚼 What Does Vitamin D Do for Babies?

Vitamin D is essential for babies (as well as for older children and adults) because it helps the body absorb calcium. Working together, calcium and vitamin D build bones and help keep them strong and healthy.

When babies do not get a sufficient amount of vitamin D, they could potentially develop rickets, that involves softening and weakening of the bones.

In addition, vitamin D has a role in fighting infection and maintaining a healthy heart, contributing to strengthening the immune system and decreasing the risk of chronic disease.

🚼 Risks for Babies Who Lack Enough Vitamin D

These may include:

👉🏻 extreme curvature in the legs
👉🏻 one leg curving more than the other
👉🏻 bowlegs becoming worse after 2 years of age
👉🏻 knock-knees after 7 years of age
👉🏻 short height
👉🏻 seizures
👉🏻 difficulty breathing.

Vitamin C in your child's diet🧡

❓Why vitamin C is important

Vitamin C helps form and repair red blood cells, bones, and tissues. It helps your child's gums stay healthy and strengthens your child's blood vessels, minimizing bruising from falls and scrapes. In addition, vitamin C helps cuts and wounds heal, boosts the immune system, and keeps infections at bay. And it helps the body absorb iron from food sources.

❓How much vitamin C does my child need?

Ages 1 to 3 years: 15 milligrams (mg) daily

Ages 4 to 8: 25 mg daily

Adults : 100 mg daily

❓The best sources of vitamin C🍌🍓🍊

Brightly colored fruits and vegetables are great sources of vitamin C.

1/4 cup guava: 82.5 mg
1/2 cup orange juice: 50 mg
1/4 cup red bell pepper: 47.5 mg
1/4 cup papaya: 47.5 mg
1/4 cup kiwi: 41 mg
1/2 medium orange: 30 mg
1/4 cup broccoli: 30 mg
three medium strawberries: 21 mg
1/4 cup pink grapefruit: 23 mg
1/4 cup cantaloupe: 17 mg
1/4 cup mango: 11 mg
1/4 cup raw tomato: 5 mg
1/4 cup spinach: 4.5 mg
1/4 cup potato, cooked without skin: 3 mg
1/4 cup banana: 2 mg

❓Can my child get too much vitamin C?

Vitamin C is water soluble, so any excess is flushed from the body in your child's urine. However, megadoses can still cause nausea, diarrhea, kidney stones, and gastritis (inflammation of the stomach lining).

Children ages 1 to 3 should not get more than 400 mg of vitamin C a day. Children ages 4 to 8 should not get more than 650 mg a day.

Everyone needs to eat carbohydrates, but that doesn't mean you should fuel up with cookies, candy, and potato chips.

Carbohydrates are an essential part of a healthy diet, but it’s important to know they're not all created equal. How do you tell the difference between “good carbs” and “bad carbs”?

A Carbohydrate Can Be a Simple Carb or a Complex Carb

Simple Carbs : Convert to sugar
must faster in body and spike sugar level
Eg : Candy and Deserts, Soda, Sugared Cereal, Refined Bread

Complex carbohydrate:
break down more slowly ,
allowing a more gradual release
of energy. Contain fibre and
other important vitamins
minerals and phytonutrients.
Eg : Whole Grain bread, Green Vegetable, Fresh Fruits

Breastfeeding Solution 🤱🤱

Some babies latch on and breastfeed well right from the start, but it doesn't always go so smoothly. Many moms and babies need time to learn how to breastfeed together. During the first week after your child is born, you may run into some struggles that can interfere with breastfeeding. But, even once breastfeeding is established and going well, issues can still pop up. Breastfeeding problems can be painful and distressing to a new mom, and they can cause a baby to become fussy, and frustrated. It can be scary to face a problem that you don't know how to deal with, so sometimes these unexpected issues lead to early weaning.
