MegaFoodBaby & Me 2 Prenatal Multi Vitamins - Prenatal Vitamins for Women with Choline, Methyl Folate & Iron, Vegetarian, Gluten-Free, Pre Natal Multivitamin for Women - 120 Tablets, 60 Servings

As I am ordering these vitamins for my second pregnancy, I realized that I never made a review for my first. I started taking the gummies of this brand before we started trying to conceive. We conceived on the very first month of trying! After I found out I was pregnant, I switched to these pills. I will say that they are fairly large and have a weird taste if you take them with water. I always ended up taking them with juice or something and that helped tremendously. I love that these are made with real folate and real fruits and veggies. This vitamin never made me nauseous. I had a happy and healthy pregnancy. I then took the postnatal of this brand and it was great! I was definitely an over supplier. I do suggest taking a DHA pill alongside of your prenatal. My son is sooo smart. He is 18 months old and knows how to count to 10, how to spell his name, his colors, and a lot of animals along with their sounds. If you’re debating this vitamin, just get it!

Good vitamin. Tastes like dirt though and the pill is on the bigger size

Kept my iron level great in my second pregnancy. great and gentle on stomach.

Love these prenatal vitamins & that they are made from great ingredients. Took them for months while trying to conceive & for my whole pregnancy. They are a little large, but easy to swallow. I did take a separate calcium & DHA supplement while pregnant. Would highly recommend this brand

These prenatals are highly recommended! They contain clean ingredients, have methylfolate (compared to folic acid), high levels of the needed vitamins, only require 2/day (low dose compared to others) and are affordable compared to other clean vitamin companies! The only downfall is that they’re the size of a horse pill and literally taste like hamster cage shavings but hey the pros outweigh the cons IMO. I haven’t experienced any side effects so far (any “ Side effects” I have had I have just attributed to normal pregnancy symptoms ie nausea & constipation)

I love that this is a food-based prenatal vitamin. I feel like it gave me heartburn when I was pregnant though. I ended up switching to Thorne prenatal and didn't have heartburn anymore.

UPDATE:So I took these for three months before TTC and got pregnant fairly quickly. Currently about halfway through my pregnancy and my bloodwork looks good and baby is growing well!I did have a huge problem with the taste during first trimester, but managed to force them down. Now I'm back to having no problem with the taste. I'm almost tempted to dock it a star for how bad it tasted during first tri but YMMV so I didn't.It's done everything I wanted and the main downside is just the cost compared to some cheaper brands. I have not had any issues with constipation or keeping it down.ORIGINAL REVIEW:I started taking these because I will be TTC soon and wanted the Folate now, and wanted to figure out a good prenatal now. I am mildly anemic and have attempted taking iron supplements before, but they made me feel so nauseous and sick that I stopped. Due to that, I was willing to spend a bit more on a prenatal that could actually get some iron in me and keep it down.This one with the two pills per day instead of one, less than 100% iron, and NO calcium to hinder the iron absorption, sounded like a perfect fit. Very happy to report that I have had no issues keeping these down, even taking them on an empty stomach. I feel more energetic than normal.It has a slight citrus taste, I can't say it is a good taste, but it is not repulsive and does not leave an aftertaste. The pill is large but that's to be expected of a two a day/one a day multivitamin pill, I think. Particularly with the iron. If large pills are a problem for you I'd recommend looking for something with more frequent but smaller doses.I plan to take Megafood's DHA & choline supplement as well as a vitamin C supplement while pregnant. If I take a blood test during the pregnancy I will update this review with the results...

I looked for several weeks at ingredient labels. Most prenatal vitamins I looked through were deficient in Choline and most didn't have *any choline. This also had the digestible form of Folate in proper quantities as well, and every other ingredient matched the recommendations without going overboard with Vitamin A . It's third party certified (a huge deal breaker when looking for vitamins). The only thing missing was EPA/DHA (found in fish); I wanted to get fish oil from the source anyway, so I picked up a purified fish oil from Natural Grocers that I take in addition to my prenatal. (A good vitamin won't have everything perfect)You can tell its food-grade by the way it tastes. I had some GI sensitivity in my first trimester which made swallowing hard and the flavor, awful. But, considering it's quality, I powered through and was able to take them without any issues in the second & third trimesters. I also loved that these did not cause me any nausea.
