Folic acid is by far the most important vitamin to take during pregnancy. Folic acid can help prevent birth defects, known as neural tube defects, including spina bifida (where the bones of the spine don't form correctly around the spinal cord) and anencephaly (where part of the brain, skull and scalp don't form properly). Key Nutrients: vitamins A, C, D, E, K, B-vitamins (including the methylated form of folate), iron, calcium, choline, magnesium, omega-3 DHA Children and pregnant or lactating women should consult their healthcare practitioner prior to use. Do not use if inner tamper seal is damaged. Consult with your healthcare practitioner before use. Keep out of reach of children. Avoid if allergic to any ingredient. When taking high doses of nutrients such as B12 and folate, monitor blood levels and use them under the supervision of a qualified physician.

If you’re trying for a baby, the UK Department of Health recommend that you take a supplement containing 400mcg of folic acid. Our chewable pregnancy vitamins contain this recommended amount per daily serving. They suggest that you take this amount of folic acid from the start of trying to conceive all the way through to your 12th week of pregnancy (the end of your first trimester). One thing that stands out with this prenatal is it is particularly high in iron with 45 mg (167% Daily Value) per three capsule serving. Iron needs go up during pregnancy because the mother’s blood supply increases. Because of this increased need, pregnant people are at an increased risk for iron deficiency. Taking a prenatal that is higher in iron may be recommended especially for those who don’t eat iron-rich foods. Eggs mature inside your body about three months before they are released into the womb, so you might like to start taking prenatal vitamins three months before you start trying for a baby.Healthline has strict sourcing guidelines and relies on peer-reviewed studies, academic research institutions, and medical associations.
