Pregnancy has humbled me.
This time round, I spent the first five months bedbound with sickness. Just getting through the day felt hard enough, never mind eating perfectly or taking supplements.
One of the things that caused me the most anxiety was wondering whether I was getting enough nutrients for my baby.
I tried several pregnancy vitamins and struggled with all of them. As soon as the tablet hit my tongue, I would start gagging.
When I asked you guys which pregnancy vitamins you’d actually managed to tolerate through severe sickness, one name kept coming up again and again:
What I personally liked was that they’re capsules, so if swallowing tablets feels impossible, you can open them and sprinkle the contents onto food.
I also liked that they’re designed for different stages of pregnancy. Your nutritional needs at 6 weeks aren’t the same as they are at 36 weeks, so it makes sense that your supplements shouldn’t stay the same either.
No supplement can replace a balanced diet, and every pregnancy is different. But finding something I could actually tolerate felt like a huge relief during a really difficult few months.
