Kieran had it orally as I couldn't bear anyone sticking needles in him!
He had one dose at about a day old and the hospital gave us 2 little glass vials that we were to give him when he was 14 and 28 days old. It's dead easy to do.
Take care
Ellie and Kieran

had it, its coz vitamin k is low when they are born so its just a boast or something like that, i'm sure it was an injection (but i was in threater so wasnt paying attion lol) it wasnt til i was in labour that i decided on it as for the last two times i had appoiments it was a evil not intrested mw i had, so never got told about it.

I thought that this would be ok to give the baby when I read the sheet that the MW gave me....then I was thinking can they give it orally rather than an injection to a little baby...I must look into this more. Good question Siobhan!

Hey ladies, your midwife should explain to you fully about vitamin K in the next couple of weeks before birth. If you read up on it, it is pretty important that they get it, can help prevent some pretty nasty stuff. It can be given by injection shortly after birth and then you can forget about it, or you can give it to them by mouth, but they have to have several doses of it over a few days/weeks. My son had it via injection so I didnt have to worry about going back for repeat doses, and I will do the same this time. At least then it is over with and I dont have to worry about it again.
Hope this helps
