When it comes to thinking about adding to our family again (and yes, I’m wanting to add to it again soon! We will need to buy some bunk beds and double the kids up!) one thing that comes to mind is a quality prenatal vitamin. It is so important to start taking a prenatal vitamin everyday BEFORE you know you are pregnant. You really need the folic acid to help prevent neural tube defects and by the time you test positive on a pregnancy test you have already been pregnant for many weeks. It is important to have those vitamins on board from day one of your pregnancy before you even know you are pregnant! Repeated studies have shown that women who get 400 micrograms or more (0.4 milligrams) daily prior to conception and during early pregnancy may reduce the risk that their baby will be born with a serious neural tube defect (a birth defect involving incomplete development of the brain and spinal cord) by up to 70%.
Now thanks to Nature Made we can also get our DHA in the same softgel as our Prenatal vitamin! What is DHA and why do you need it? DHA is an omega-3 fatty acid that plays an important role in brain development, especially during the critical period of fetal development and infancy. DHA is transferred directly from the mother to the fetus during brain and retina development or to the infants through breastfeeding. Recommended DHA dose is 200-300 mg/day. Nature Made was the first OTC brand to launch a Prenatal Multivitamin with 200mg DHA in one single softgel so that we would only have to take 1 softgel per day. I love that it offers a two for one benefit. It is hard enough to remember to take one vitamin much less take two! Buy It! You can buy Nature Made Prenatal + DHA vitamins at retailers near you including Target, Walgreens and more!
