Pros: one a day, contains ALL the ESSENTIAL ingredients needed in a supplement for pregnancy and breastfeeding. Recommended by my Obstetrician
Cons: nothing, although i did top up with extra fish oil supplements. there is only so much they can squeeze into one amazing little pill
Overall: I believe Fefol multi-preg is the best on the market. Most pharmacies tout Elevit as the premium product (i wonder whether they get some sort of kick-back from it) but it is missing iodine and fish oils which are essential for normal brain development in feotus and baby. Multi-preg has these and is cheaper.
Pros: its cheaper, only 1 tablet per day, has chelated minerals and fish oil for baby's brain.
Overall: I tried lots of different brands and found I got an upset stomach and digestive problems with most (Swisse, Elevit, Cenovis...) Fefol Multi-preg has been the most stable for me. Its easy to take, no bad taste and reasonably priced.
Pros: This is only one tab a day, No after taste & if has the baby brain food in it (fish Oil)
Cons: It is a large tab, But it is still easy to sallow.
Overall: I started to take these tablets before i fell preg. and then took them all through. it was easy to remember to take as it is only one. (you do forget !!)My son has now being born and still taking them while i am b/f. I have to say that my son seem to be very alert and active for his age. I would like to say it is because of these tab.
Pros: Good value for money. Not as much iron as some of the other vitamin tablets.
Cons: Large sized tablet.
Overall: I swapped to Fefol Multi-preg as they had comparable ingredients in them to the ones I had been using, but much less iron and felt better for it as they did not leave me feeling bloated.
They are really good value for money (less than 50 cents per capsule) and you only need to take one per day. Even though they are large in size they are still easy to swallow as they are capsules, so easier to go down, and no after taste left in your mouth.
Pros: Good value for money. Has 'baby smart' ingredients. Only one tablet daily.
Cons: Not quite as complex as some
Overall: Compared many different pregnancy vitamins and this one is really good value for money. Has all the 'main' nutrients required and includes extra 'baby smart' ingredients to help with mind and brain development.
As I suffered greatly with morning/all day sickness, I didn't want to 2-3 tablets all day. This is only one tablet daily
