New ChapterAdvanced Perfect Prenatal Vitamins - 192ct, Organic, Non-GMO Ingredients for Healthy Baby & Mom - Folate (Methylfolate), Iron, Vitamin D3, Fermented with Whole Foods and Probiotics

I chose these prenatals because they use folate instead of folic acid, they're vegan and have probiotics.I took these before, during and after pregnancy. I've taken them on an empty stomach many times and they never upset my stomach. It is recommended on the bottle to take one pill three times a day, some days I forgot to take all three. I think as long as you eat healthy it's no big deal to miss a pills

As an expectant father, I was very happy to find out my wife and I are expecting a baby next spring. As a loving husband and future-parent, I wanted the BEST for my child. But because I am new to fatherhood, I went to Google to search for the BEST prenatal vitamin for my wife. Of all the ones that came up via several parenting sites and forums, New Chapter was one of the top ones on everyone's list. The only place that had them locally was Whole Foods. While I normally don't shop there, Whole Foods are extremely health-focused, so it made sense to look to compare what they had.After 45 minutes of sitting on the floor comparing the ingredients of all their prenatal vitamins, one gentleman with his wife (who looked like she was about to pop) picked these up. I asked him why he chose those over the other various brands available at Whole Foods and he said it was the only one that didn't make his wife sick and he said she tried all of them. He also said that these were made of whole foods, so it's good for her. In addition to what that guy said, of all the ones at Whole Foods, these were the only ones that didn't have any fish-related ingredients. Anything fish-based makes my wife EXTREMELY nauseous.Then we went to our doctor for our first visit after her pregnancy test. I showed our doctor the prenatal vitamins and she said these were good BUT we needed DHA for our baby's development. Rather than buying a whole new prenatal vitamin with DHA, we decided to keep taking these since we knew it didn't make my wife sick (even on an empty stomach). I went back to Whole Foods to look for a DHA supplement. Of all the ones at Whole Foods, the only one that wasn't fish-based was  Spectrum Essentials Prenatal DHA Softgels, 200 mg SoftGels, 60 Count Bottle .My wife absolutely adores both the Spectrum DHA and New Chapter prenatal vitamins. By taking both, we have the peace of mind that these two supplements are providing everything that our baby needs and my wife is EXTREMELY happy that she is able to take both pills, even on an empty stomach and have no sickness/nausea whatsoever. There is no bad taste and the smell of these pills are actually pleasing. Icing on the cake is that my wife's skin and nails grow EXTREMELY fast. While I wouldn't think that as a pro, she loves it.Having gone through an entire first bottle already, when i went back to Whole Foods, I was alarmed to see that they were $65 (I bought them on sale last with the initial purchase). I ended up buying our 2nd batch of pills through Amazon, which had them for nearly half the price. Spectrum Essentials Prenatal DHA Softgels, 200 mg SoftGels, 60 Count Bottle

It's a great product - easy on the stomach and relatively low odour and taste, but the last couple orders I got from Amazon had numerous broken pills. I will continue purchasing this product, but in-store as this is quite annoying.

I never EVER write reviews, but I have been raving about this Prenatal vitamin for the past 2 months ever since I started taking it so I thought I would add my two cents. This prenatal vitamin works wonders for my body. I am a 26 year old female who is trying to conceive. I was taking some lame store-bought vitamins before this (do not take the VitaFusion chewies, the vitamin A is sourced from animals and not good for you or baby long-term).... and when my doctor prescribed me prenatals, I noticed they had a lot of extra baggage in them like dyes and preservatives. I didn't want to put that in my body so I never even took one. I did some research and found New Chapter.The most wonderful thing has happened to me while taking these prenatals. I am someone who normally gets a cold or some kind of illness every 6 weeks at least.... usually more... I usually just feel like crap all the time. Low energy, depression and anxiety, digestive issues, feeling run-down in general. I started taking these in the winter time in NY, and it was a rough winter. I watched my husband go through a nasty cold and several times I thought I caught his cold or some other cold- but I would take the vitamins and wake up in the morning feeling completely fine! I used to take 2 of them at night, and recently changed it to all 3 in the morning, so that I could start the day with a boost. I have a sensitive stomach and these really never mess with my stomach. I also added New Chapter Co-enzyme B food complex, which has given me a HUGE burst of long-lasting energy to the point where my eyes feel like they can see clearer and my head is not in a fog. This is a transformative, life-changing thing for me. I suppose it will vary for each person, depending on if you start out feeling like I felt, or if you're normally a high energy and lively person. I was not and now I'm starting to see that I can be that way simply by adding supplements to my diet. I tell everyone about these vitamins (also recommend the Vitamin B) and I hope more people learn that they don't have to feel bad all the time and there IS a way to give your body the energy it craves. By taking these vitamins and feeling better, it also encourages me to get to the gym and get many more things accomplished in my day. That is why it is life-changing. I no longer need a nap in the middle of the day- what?!!! I will lay down for a nap and then realize I'm not tired so I get up and do more stuff. That is unheard of, my entire life I have been a mid-day napper. Between that and never getting sick, I'm thoroughly impressed.I hope my review will help someone. I am a real person and I'm being totally honest here. Try out the vitamins and you'll be writing a review yourself.

Great vitamins that did not upset my already queezy/sensitive tummy while pregnant. Taking it 3 times a day can be a hassle but allows the vitamins to be smaller and less intense than other daily alternatives. All natural ingredients so I know what I was putting in my body.
