not sure if Ella had an injection or orally in the hosp, but when we got home the midwife gave me the second dose that was given at 10 days or something like that and that was given to her orally by me.

I'm Currently Feeling: 


Im guessing my hospital only offer it orally as I wasnt given a choice. I've opted for it though.

But as Layla said. Either way wouldnt really matter after what they have just experianced at birth. X

we went for the oral option, where one is given straight after birth and it requires two follow ups.

I read that they were once assuming there is a link between the injection of Vitamin K and leukaemia, but it is not scientifically proven!
