Baby will take what the nutrients they need from you, whether you have enough to spare or not. Because of this, it’s vital to get enough nutrients for you and for your growing baby. Unfortunately, many moms begin pregnancy deficient in one or more vitamins or minerals, so prenatal vitamins become especially important. The problem? Not all prenatal vitamins are created equally. Read on to find the best prenatal vitamins for you. .scroll-to-links ul { margin:0 0 0 2em!important; padding:0 0 0 10px; list-style-type:none; } On this page… What are the best food-based prenatal vitamins?

Is cod liver oil safe? Best Prenatal Vitamins: Food-based Prenatals Food-based prenatals are more absorbable and gentler on the stomach, because they are derived from food instead of isolated vitamins. In fact, many women who suffer from constipation or nausea while on conventional prenatal vitamins during pregnancy see a significant improvement when switching to food-based prenatals. Because they are derived from food, these prenatal blends contain the enzymes, phytonutrients, and other co-factors that make the vitamin most absorbable and add to the spectrum of nutrition. Many also include probiotics and herbal blends, too. The downside to food based prenatals is that they are more expensive and have lower levels of each vitamin and mineral than a synthetic vitamin. However, because they are thought to be more highly absorbable than synthetics, this isn’t a deal-breaker. Here’s a comparison of food-based prenatals: MegaFood Baby & Me Prenatal Vitamins MegaFood offers two versions of its prenatal blend: Baby & Me and Baby & Me 2 (doesn’t contain the herbal blend). This company has high quality standards—their prenatal vitamins are non-GMO, contain no pesticides/herbicides, and are made from farm-fresh food. They contain a great cross-spectrum of nutrients, are higher in vitamin D, contain vitamin K, and have lots of good B vitamins. Plus, they’re strong in iodine, iron and zinc, three important minerals in pregnancy. It is lower in vitamin A, but that shouldn’t be a problem if you take cod liver oil. It’s also low in calcium and magnesium—try supplementing with organic, grass-fed dairy and magnesium. New Chapter Perfect Prenatals Perfect Prenatal is gluten-free, non-GMO, and made from organic foods. It is strong in vitamin D, K and iron. Unfortunately, it doesn’t reach the RDA in zinc, iodine, calcium, magnesium, or surprisingly, folate (probably the most important nutrient when pregnant). It also contains soy, which is a high-allergen food, even when fermented. Still, I know many moms who swear by this prenatal, and I do like how it includes probiotics and a sprout blend. Rainbow Light This is a popular prenatal in the crunchy world, and for good reason. It contains double the iron of most prenatal vitamins and is strong in iodine, zinc, copper, and vitamin C. It also contains a hearty dose of probiotics and is known for being gentle on the stomach. Plus, you only need to take one per day—much more convenient, especially if you have pregnancy brain! The downside is that it does contain vitamin D2, instead of the more absorbable D3. It also contains folic acid instead of folate, which is a big problem if you have MTHFR issues. (More on that later.) Find this prenatal vitamin here. Vitamin Code Raw Prenatal Vitamin Code is another popular food-based prenatal. It is non-GMO, contains no fillers, and is processed at low heat for optimal nutrient retention. It is strong in vitamin C, iodine, iron, and all of the vitamin Bs. It contains double the vitamin D3 of most prenatals, but it is lower in vitamin K, which can be problematic for good calcium absorption. It’s also lower in zinc and copper, important trace minerals. Some moms can’t take this formula because they are allergic to one of the many food ingredients, like seeds and grains. Another drawback is that you have to take this prenatal vitamin three times per day—a definite inconvenience for some. Find them here. Prenatal Vitamins for Moms Who Have the MTHFR Mutation The MTHFR defect, which some say affects up to 50-60 percent of the population, makes it difficult for your body to convert folic acid (and even folate) into a usable form (called methylation). Because folate deficiencies are associated with some birth defects such as spina bifida and neural tube defects, it’s vital to know if you have the MTHFR mutation and, if so, to take the right form of prenatal when you are pregnant. Luckily there are prenatal blends designed especially for women who have the MHTFR mutation. MTHFR Prenatal: Seeking Health This prenatal was created by one of the world’s MTHFR experts, Dr. Ben Lynch. It contains methylfolate and folinic acid, which are especially great for women who can’t process folic acid or even folate. It also contains methylcobalamin and adenosylcobalamin, absorbable forms of B12 for those with the MTHFR defects. This prenatal is also very high in all vitamins and minerals and even includes some helpful foods and herbs. The biggest problem with this prenatal is that it doesn’t contain any iron—add Megafood Blood Builder or Liver Pills for iron. And because it’s not food based, it may be harder for the body to absorb all of its nutrients. Find them here. MTHFR Prenatal: Thorne Research As shown above, this prenatal blend includes methylated folate instead of folic acid. It also contains a lot of iron, which can be irritating for some moms and contains significantly less vitamin B6 than the label states. And according to Lab Door’s research, it contains 99 percent less vitamin B6 as is stated on the label, so an additional B supplement may be needed. Find it here. MTHFR Prenatals: Zahler Prenatal + DHA These prenatals contain methylated folate, which is more easily assimilated into the body. And the added DHA helps baby’s eyes and brain develop. Another plus for some: This blend doesn’t contain herbs. Find them here. MTHFR Prenatals: Dr. Ron’s Though not a prenatal, this multivitamin contains methylated forms of B vitamins and is super high in important minerals like calcium, magnesium, selenium, and iodine. It also contains antioxidants from grape seed extract. However, this supplement is not food-based and doesn’t include all of the natural co-enzymes, co-factors, and bioflavonoids found in food-based vitamins and minerals. It also may be harder to absorb and cause some stomach upset. Be sure to take this prenatal vitamin with food. It’s also lacking vitamin A and iron, two important nutrients when pregnant. Find them here. Create Your Own Prenatal Vitamins You can also create your own prenatal vitamins based on your particular biological needs. Some moms do blood and/or hair tissue mineral analysis to see specifically which nutrients they may need more of and which minerals they don’t need to supplement with. Obviously, not everyone can afford or access this kind of personalized testing, but hopefully this will be the medical norm one day. If you do create your own, make sure it includes folate, magnesium, iodine, zinc, iron, plus vitamins A, D, C, K, and B. It’s also a good idea to include a good probiotic for gut health. By boosting your good bacteria levels, you may ward off things like Group B Strep and thrush when breastfeeding. You may also help colonize your baby with the best bacteria possible, which can affect her health for the rest of her life. What About Synthetic Prenatal Vitamins? These are the ones you can get at most drug stores. They are a complete cross-spectrum of nutrients, but they are created in a laboratory with vitamin isolates separated from the natural co-factors like phytonutrients that help your body absorb or utilize the vitamin. These synthetic vitamins are shown to be nutritionally inferior to natural vitamins and can cause digestive issues. Synthetic vitamin E can be especially problematic. Research has linked synthetic vitamin E to DNA damage to the liver, prostate cancer in men, and congenital heart defects in babies born to women taking large doses of vitamin E. And while beta-carotene is an important precursor to vitamin A, it’s synthetic form can cause problems. Researchers found that high amounts of synthetic beta-carotene may actually block some of the mechanisms of vitamin A in the body. Whole, natural foods contain a variety of vitamins, minerals, and phytonutrients that work together to be absorbed and utilized. When vitamins are isolated like they are in synthetic vitamin blends, your body may utilize some of the vitamins but deplete others. Why Do I Need Prenatal Vitamins? Growing a baby is tough work. Baby will take what he needs, whether or not you have much to give. To avoid losing your own stores of nutrients, you have to get enough vitamins and minerals for both of you. Here are the most common vitamins and minerals in prenatal vitamins and an overview of what they do in the body: Vitamin A: Supports eye and brain development, respiratory development Thiamin (Vitamin B1): Supports the nervous system, supports baby’s brain development Riboflavin (Vitamin B2): Supports healthy eyes and skin Niacin (Vitamin B3): Supports the digestive, integumentary, and nervous systems Pantothenic (Vitamin B5): Helps to create hormones and may ease leg cramps Vitamin B6: Helps form red blood cells and may help with morning sickness Biotin (Vitamin B7): Works with other B vitamins to help release energy from food Folate/ Folic Acid (Vitamin B9): Prevents neural tube defects and Spina Bifida in baby Vitamin B12: Promotes blood formation and helps prevent birth defects that affect the spine and central nervous system Vitamin C: Helps your body absorb iron and protects against the effects of stress Vitamin D: Helps strengthen bones and teeth, plus helps your body utilize calcium and phosphorus Vitamin E: Promotes overall wellness and metabolism, plus may help reduce miscarriages Vitamin K: Supports healthy bone formation, blood clotting, and healing Calcium: Supports bone development Copper: Plays a role in iron metabolism and supports blood health Iron: Helps the blood carry oxygen Iodine: Supports healthy thyroid function, metabolism, fetal growth, and hearing Magnesium: Supports healthy blood pressure and healthy birth weight Zinc: Supports immune, nerve, and muscle function Is Cod Liver Oil Safe? There are some concerns around vitamin A during pregnancy. While some birth defects have been associated with vitamin A, those studies assessed the effects of large amounts of the synthetic form of vitamin A versus what is naturally found in cod liver oil and beef liver. Women have been eating liver and cod liver oil (and giving it to their kids) for thousands of years, many times under their doctor’s orders.What’s more? Studies suggest cod liver oil could be great for a variety of ailments, from arthritis to cognitive performance. It only makes sense that those potential benefits would continue during pregnancy. Of course, you should check with your midwife or OB-GYN to see what’s best for you during your pregnancy. .embed-pin { margin: 0.5rem 0 2.4rem 2.4rem; padding-right:3px; float:right; } @media only screen and (max-width: 460px) { .embed-pin { margin: 2.4rem 0; padding-right:0; float:none; text-align: center; } } Good for Mama, Good for Baby No matter which road you take with your prenatal, the important thing is to flood your body with a cross-spectrum of nutrients through supplements and diet. This is especially true if it is your second, third, or fourth pregnancy, when nutritional reserves may be lower than the first time around. If you plan on breastfeeding, many midwives will recommend continuing on your prenatal for the entire duration of breastfeeding. In fact, since 50 percent of pregnancies are unplanned, all women of childbearing age might consider taking a prenatal vitamin. Take the extra time and expense to feed yourself well during these critical child-bearing years. It will pay off with greater health and vitality for you and your family! How About You?

I was thankful for so many things during my second pregnancy… First, that my son Griffin became potty-trained in early summer. It was an easy process without a lot of drama. Love that kid! (Need tips? Check out this post and video.) Second, I got through a few months of queasiness with this supplement. And third, my husband was home more and I wasn’t working in Corporate America (yoga pants, here I come!) I was also incredibly grateful that my tests, blood work, blood pressure, and ultrasound all came back with no issues or abnormalities. Thank you God! I do have to say that it was a tougher pregnancy though because I was chasing after a 3 year old; we moved to a new place; and my activity levels were MUCH HIGHER compared with my previous pregnancy where I sat at a desk for 8 hours a day. Overall, I found some really helpful tools that allowed me manage my natural pregnancy well, including these. (check out my postpartum essentials too) Tools that helped me have a natural pregnancy 1. Raspberry Leaf Tea This nice tasting tea helps tone the uterus and pelvic muscles and is great for childbirth. Most midwives and OB-GYNs recommend drinking RRL tea in the 2nd trimester on since it can trigger some uterine cramping. I never had an issue with myself but be sure to check with doctor. 2. Magnesium Oil This topical magnesium is so very easy for the body to absorb and instantly calmed and soothed my body. Magnesium can also help with morning sickness, fatigue, constipation and gestational diabetes. 3. Exercise ball Because I want a natural childbirth, I used this exercise ball often as my “chair.” It keeps the pelvis forward and in good alignment. Now, don’t get me wrong, in the first trimester, you better believe I was reclining, lounging and engulfed in our super comfy, oversized couch. But, once I was nearing my 3rd trimester, I started using this exercise ball which helps strengthen your core as you sit. It also is great to lean on during labor. Bottom line, this handy tool can get baby into optimal position for birth. (More on that here.) 4. HCL/Pepsin Especially in the first trimester and now in the third, I find my digestion can get a little wonky when pregnant. The pregnancy hormones can slow down our digestive process, which can lead to heartburn, acid reflux and nausea. In enters this HCL/Pepsin supplement… HCL is something our stomachs secrete naturally during digestion so I like that it “mimics” and supports this process. I found 1-2 capsules per meal worked great to keep any tummy troubles at bay. You can see all the supplements I took while pregnant here. 5. Supernatural Childbirth This little book has been such a God send. While I’m not 100% convinced that a painless childbirth is possible :), I do appreciate reading the testimonials and Scripture that helps support a more spiritual birth. I love the prayers for conception, for the growing child in utero, and for the delivery itself. HUGE FAITH BUILDER! There’s also this great audio piece that’s great to listen to throughout day. 6. Lemonade Take 2 lemons. Squeeze through strainer into a quart Mason jar. Add filtered water and about 10 drops of stevia. Add a dash of sea salt. This delicious drink has been my go-to this pregnancy. I find it helps not only getting my fluids in for the day but also aids digestion. 7. SpinningBabies.com This website, while not the most user-friendly, contains a WEALTH of helpful information on baby positioning. Why is that important? Well, generally speaking, the better position our baby is in, the easier our childbirth will be. You can learn more about here and here. 8. Pumpkin Spice Lattes This tasty little beverage has been a lovely gift throughout the later half of my pregnancy. The warm milk… the sweet spices… the pumpkin flavor… and so much better than the Starbucks version. Since I’m sensitive to caffeine, I use a naturally decaffeinated coffee like this one for my lattes. 9. The Mama Natural Week-By-Week Guide to Pregnancy & Childbirth! If you want to feel empowered and inspired, be sure to pick up a copy of my natural pregnancy guide! 10. All of YOU! The support, love and wisdom within this community keeps me going. I have LOVED sharing this pregnancy with you and hearing so many inspiring stories from all of you. Thank you for sharing yourselves so freely and being positive examples of Natural Mamas 🙂 Are you pregnant? Planning a shower?

Many TTC-ing moms want to know sooner rather than later if they’ll get that BFP test, and implantation cramping may be an early sign that they, indeed, will! But implantation cramping is tricky—not everyone experiences it and it can be similar to PMS cramps. In this post we’ll answer: .scroll-to-links ul { margin:0 0 0 2em!important; padding:0 0 0 10px; list-style-type:none; } On this page… What does implantation cramping feel like? How long does implantation cramping last? Is it possible that you’re feeling something besides implantation cramping? What Is Implantation Cramping? If/when one lucky sperm enters the egg, conception occurs. The embryo then divides into two cells to become a zygote. The zygote continues to grow and subdivide to become a blastocyst while it travels down the fallopian tube before implanting in the uterus. When implantation occurs, some of the mucous membrane of the uterine lining changes in order to allow the blastocyst to implant, causing implantation cramping and/or implantation bleeding. (source) What Do Implantation Cramps Feel Like? Some women mistake implantation for their premenstrual cramps, especially because implantation generally happens around the same time most women would expect their next menstrual cycle to begin. To make matters more confusing. both menstrual cramps and implantation cramping are usually mild to moderate. Some say implantation cramps can be differentiated from menstrual cramps if you experience the following sensations: pricking pulling tingling feeling If you experience any sharp, persistent pain, talk to your healthcare provider, as this could be a sign of something more serious. Where Do You Feel Implantation Cramps? Where you feel implantation cramps will vary from woman to woman. For some they are more centralized, similar to period cramps; others may feel implantation cramps in a different place, like on one side or very low in the abdomen. Are Implantation Cramps Always Accompanied By Implantation Bleeding? No. You can absolutely have one without the other. Let’s unpack this: Implantation cramps and spotting occur because the blastocyst implants into the lining causing a bit of a disturbance. Sometimes that means a bit of light cramping. Other times that means a few blood cells are loosened, causing implantation bleeding. And sometimes both; sometimes neither. Remember: Our bodies are all different, and signs of implantation (if any are present at all) vary from woman to woman. When Does Implantation Cramping Occur? Cramping during implantation occurs at different times for different women, but generally occurs 6-11 days after conception. The blastocyst implants in the uterus within a few days of reaching it. And since implantation cramping (or bleeding) doesn’t necessarily happen on the day of implantation, you may feel symptoms of implantation over the course of a few days. How Long Do You Have Implantation Cramps? Every woman’s body is different—and women can (and often do) experience different things with each pregnancy. Sometimes cramping lasts just a few minutes other times it comes and goes, and sometimes it’s relatively constant for a few days. .embed-pin { margin: 0.5rem 0 2.4rem 2.4rem; padding-right:3px; float:right; } @media only screen and (max-width: 460px) { .embed-pin { margin: 2.4rem 0; padding-right:0; float:none; text-align: center; } } What If I Don’t Experience Implantation Cramping? Know that many pregnant women do not experience any implantation cramping at all. In one study, 25 percent of participants reported some bleeding during their first trimester. About 17 percent of those individuals reported spotting and 8 percent reported heavy bleeding. Both groups reported some pain, though pain was nearly two times more likely in the group that experienced heavy bleeding. Whether you experience implantation cramping or not, look for other signs of early pregnancy and take a pregnancy test to determine if you are pregnant. If an initial pregnancy test is negative, wait a few days and take another one. If you test too close to your missed period, your body may not be producing enough Human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG), the hormone produced by the placenta during pregnancy, to show a positive result. When Implantation Cramping is Mistaken for Something Else “Hormonal changes related to ovulation can affect some of the same pathways in your brain that might be affected by other medical conditions,” says Chailee Moss, M.D., an ob-gyn at Johns Hopkins Medicine What may seem like implantation cramping may actually be something else entirely. If you are not pregnant, here are some things that could be causing uterine cramping: Pre-period cramps: As discussed above, PMS cramping and implantation cramping are often very similar. They are both dull and consistent. Digestive cramping: Gas, indigestion, food sensitivities, and illness can also cause cramping in your abdominal, though this pain is associated with your gastrointestinal tract. Ovulation cramping: If cramping occurs around the time of ovulation time, it’s called mittelschmerz, a German word that means “middle” and “pain.” Ovulation cramping occurs when the follicle ruptures and releases the egg. You’ll likely feel mild discomfort (a pinch or twinge). “You’ll feel it only on one side of your lower abdomen, depending on which ovary is releasing an egg,” says Amy Autry, MD, clinical professor of obstetrics-gynecology and reproductive sciences at the University of California at San Francisco. Ovarian/Pelvic cysts: If you experience intense pain, especially pain that’s accompanied by nausea or vomiting, it could be an ovarian cyst. Consult your doctor right away. If the pain is significant and accompanied by heavy bleeding, talk to your doctor or midwife. And, of course, listen to your body. Regardless of symptoms, if you think something is amiss, it’s a good idea to call your healthcare provider. When You’re Hoping for Pregnancy If you’re trying to conceive, feeling implantation cramps can be both exciting and scary at the same time. You’ll probably wonder whether you’re pregnant, but you’ll probably also wonder whether everything is okay if you are pregnant. Remember that implantation cramping is not a sure sign one way or the other—some women experience implantation cramping and others don’t. Try to relax, be extra kind to yourself (get plenty of sleep and maintain a healthy diet), and take a pregnancy test. If you get a negative the first time, wait a few days and try again. We know how hard it is to wait, but most pregnancy tests are most accurate a week after your missed period. How About You? Did you experience implantation cramping?
