Babies get their supply of "Vitamin D" in the form of 1,25[OHD]
through the placenta so they don't even have to synthesize the active
hormone. They do not need to make any of their own until after the
blood supply to and from the mother is severed. Coincidentally that is
just around when their skin gets hit with light(ideally in nature).
