Summary
The overall goal of this study is to assess maternal vitamin D status along with diet, and
milk composition, and in turn, to evaluate if infant vitamin D status can be improved with
increased maternal supplementation and diet education. The central hypothesis is that by
maximizing maternal vitamin D status in breastfed, preterm infants (<35 weeks), there will be
an increase infant 25(OH)D status at 1,2, and 3 months of age.
