Dear Collective
We have a 14 day old infant with a Corrected Calcium of 3.14 mmol/L rising since first measurement at Day 8 which was 2.98 mmol/L
PO4= 1.78 mmol/L
PTH = 0.4 pmol/L
Vit D = 84 nmol/L
Creat < 18 mmol/L (The joys of having to put up with a Jaffe method) so I cant work out the Ca/Cre ratio to exclude FHH
The infant is being breast fed and was term baby
Looks normal, one doc thought about Williams syndrome
There is a suspicion that mum may have been aggressively Vit D supplementing during pregnancy
I do not have her levels yet but am chasing this
Does anyone have any Vit D ranges for neonatal  going into infant age related ranges
84 feels high to me?
BW John
