New born babies are deficient in vitamin K for a reason. When a baby is born, its blood is thin to facilitate the transfer of nutrients and stem cells from the umbilical cord (connected to the mother’s placenta). The baby starts producing its own vitamin K in the 7-8th day.

No Problem, and related to the thread. When i was born i became extremely sick and was put into a neo-natal unit with .... jaundice and suffered with reoccurring bouts until about 6 . Talking with my Mother recently (yesterday) i enquired ' Did i have a vit k injection when i was born ?/' 'I'm pretty sure you did yes all you kids did'. Well that explains that (to me at least).
