This was so helpful, especially since you have these specific dosages in the description! I wanted a prenatal vitamin especially for infertility and conception, as I have PCOS.

[@mckenzieannabelle]

@@lupitacovarrubias6790 Hi Lupita. DHA is good for your health and the health of your baby, but it is not required to take as a supplement during pregnancy. You can purchase the Actif prenatal that contains DHA, you can take a supplement separately, or you can eat foods high in DHA (omega-3 fatty acid) such as salmon, tuna, flax seeds, walnuts, and eggs. I hope this is helpful.

You are a LIFESAVER! Thanks to you, I stopped Materna and bought Megafood baby&me 2 today :) I found it doesn’t have calcium so I bought ‘platinum easycal calcium’ as well.

Calcium is good to take during pregnancy as your baby is using your calcium stores to build his or her bones. If you don't want to supplement calcium, you can eat foods high in calcium.

[@mckenzieannabelle]

Hi Presley. You can choose between the two different prenatal vitamins. I recommend them both. If you take Baby and Me then take 2 tablets each day. It does not have DHA (omega 3 fatty acid), which is healthy for your pregnancy, but it is not a requirement for a prenatal. You can get omega-3 fatty acid from foods such as salmon, flax seeds, and walnuts. Or you can take the Actif prenatal. Best wishes.

[@erinhanou2675]

I have been reading that up to 50% of the population has a gene mutation that prevents proper absorption of folic acid, therefore folate is the better nutrient to look for. Most vitamins contain folic acid which is synthetic but I was able to find folate based option at Whole Foods. My dr didn’t know anything about this.

Hi Cayla. Baby and Me does not contain choline like Baby and Me 2 does. This is not required in a prenatal as you can get choline in enough quantity in many foods. However, many moms like to take "just in case". It is very good for your baby during development. Also, the baby and me requires you to take 4 tablets per day for a serving! Baby and Me 2 only requires you to take 2 tablets per day for a serving. Big benefit.

For eg in one prenatal supplement there is 70mg of vitamin c but I have fresh have orange juice every morning which also has vitamin c so will this not be harmful for me ? Please reply

[@mckenzieannabelle]

Hi Cris Ann. Getting vitamins and minerals in your diet (food) is the best way to get the nutrients that you need. However, most women do not eat enough fresh fruits, vegetable, nuts, meat, etc. to get all of the vitamins and minerals needed to grow their precious cargo (baby). I always recommend that women take a prenatal vitamin before, during, and after pregnancy (even if they have a very healthy and balanced diet). Your body will get rid of the "extra" amounts of vitamins and minerals that it does not need. The vitamins that you need to be cautious about overdosing with are vitamins A, D, E, and K. These vitamins, in very large doses, can build up in your body and become dangerous. However, this happens when taken in LARGE doses. So, yes, I do recommend that you take a prenatal vitamin to be safe. I hope this is helpful. Best wishes.

Hi! Thanks for the video.

Do you recommend taking individual vitamins (at the recommended amounts) away from their problem vitamins to help increase absorption?

Hi Kala. The contents of a prenatal vitamin work together well. Prenatal vitamins do not always contain enough calcium. So, it is good to take calcium separately. It is never a bad thing to take vitamins individually like you described. However, this is more work for you. Make sure that you are not too overwhelmed with remembering to take each vitamin. A big concern is that women take vitamins on an empty stomach or without fat. Certain vitamins need fat for absorption. So, I recommend that you take your vitamins with a meal containing healthy fats (avocado, eggs, butter, olive oil, cheese, etc.)

How is this guy both MD and DO? 🤔🤔

[@mckenzieannabelle]

Hi JTra. Dr. Boyd went to medical school and earned his D.O. (Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine). Then he returned to achieve his M.D. (Medical Doctor). This allows Dr. Boyd to have two perspectives while caring for his patients. Hope this helps👍
