Prenatal supplements.  There are SO MANY OPTIONS.

In this video, I chat all about:

  • What I look for when I'm picking a prenatal for myself or my friends
  • Folate, vitamin B12, biotin, choline, iodine, iron, calcium, DHA in prenatals
  • How to pick a good quality supplement
  • My favorite prenatal + a second option
