Vitamin K. Babyâs vitamin K stores at birth are very low. Vitamin K is needed for proper blood clotting, and a deficiency of this vitamin causes a syndrome called Vitamin K deficiency bleeding (VKDB). Increasing momâs vitamin K intake increases the amount of vitamin K in her milk.
Causes of Vitamin K Deficiency. The most common causes of vitamin K deficiency are insufficient dietary intake, inadequate absorption, and decreased storage of the vitamin due to liver disease, but it may also be caused by decreased production in the intestines. Deficiencies in newborns are associated with hemorrhagic disease of the newborn (also called vitamin K deficiency bleeding or VKDB). 2  This can cause bleeding and bruising and, in severe cases, can lead to fatal bleeding into the brain.
