Angel, I will add more to my blog updates about Vitmin D. I "absorbed" everything I could about Vit D at the conference, met the authors, and bought her book.
Keep up your walks and consider taking a supplement yourself during lactation.
I really want to show that we don't all need to supplement our baby in Florida, however, almost everyone, EVERYONE, all ages, I test is suboptimal.

I exclusively BF my son He is 4 months this Saturday and hasn't had any vaccines and is healthy and in the 75th percentile for height and 55th percentile for weight at his check up today.. He has never been sick since bringing him home from the hospital. His pediatrician today said we should be giving him Vitamin D 400IU's daily. We live in Palm Beach County and take him for daily walks. Should we be giving him Vitamin D? he was never tested to show he was even defficient so I am confused about telling all parents that BF to give their little ones a supplement. I am not a fan of this one size fits all agenda. What are your thoughts on this?

Thanks, Denise! :)

I prescribe bio's ( and related compounds)for fatigue, depression, mood, wt. management, cyclic problems, hot flashes, and sometimes when nothing else has worked.

If you are interested b/c you are out of town, I would call Pete first. Let him know I referred you. He can get you started and help you find a local doctor to work with.

I can do phone consults to get people started with labs, but the pharmacist needs a physician who has seen you in person to sign off on his Rx recommendations.

I usually do blood work vs. saliva. I check hormone levels, thyroid, adrenals, vit D. Pete helps manage lipids, glucose, vitamin levels, thyroid, adrenals. We have offered products and nutritional support for wt. loss.

I wish I had known about you when I was breastfeeding my own son because it is even more true for African-American mothers and their kids. We're in GA.

Only I didn't know that ten years ago and we did exclusive breastfeeding for one year & extended breastfeeding and child-led weaning even after that. We both take drops now and he seems to grow an inch or more a month now.

I am interested in what you do with bioidenticals. I already use an OTC health food store progesterone cream.

Thanks for visiting my blog!

Thanks for sharing this information. I would expect it here in NY, but I am surprised of the outcomes in Sunny FL.
I hope you will continue to share more test results.
