what does everyone think of the vitamin k shot and hepatitis b shot they give baby at birth I've tried researching and so far other than side effects I can't find anything on it but it's good for baby and they need it I don't know what to do
Vitamin K helps your baby's blood to clot. Hepatitis B shot is to prevent your baby from having liver problems is how my OB explained it. It's basically a insurance card to prevent your baby from getting sick is what she said.
your child has no clotting factor when he/she is first born so they need the vitamin k shot. children have died from brain bleeds because mothers have refused the shot.
