Just wondering what other vegan parents' experiences are with this. The Vegan Society says that the oral dose is not vegan, because it's in gelatin capsules. However, on a non-veg forum, I was reading about people giving drops (like from a medicine dropper) because there's a correlation now with the jab specifically (but not oral doses) and an increased risk of the child developing leukemia. The doses were lower in the drops than in the injection. The chance of the baby having this clotting disorder are really small (like 1 in 10,000ish) I'm wondering how many pass the Vit K up all together? If we formula feed, bean will get the K there, but I hope to breast feed and what baby gets this way seems to be really variable, though some places say the mother can take a supplement too.

I'm only about halfway (19 weeks), but we're trying to think ahead about some of these things. Other big concern is what to do if breast feeding doesn't work for some reason.
