The medical community doesnt seem to want to address how necessary vit K is so its a tough discussion to actually have. Google “vitamin K manufacturer” and tell me if you see a coincidence.
NIH recommended daily value of vit k for newborn = 2mcg. For adults its about 100mcg per day. The fact sheet for the vit k injection for adults indicates typically 2.5 - 10 mg with side effects. I dont understand how they arrived at 2mg being an appropriate dosage for a newborn.

If breast feeding you could load Mom up with greens and supplementation off her own to increase vit k to the baby with a more natural biological mechanism.
