On the other hand, this iron amount is right at the UL for iron. It may be higher than needed for pregnant people getting enough iron in their diet.

One thing we wanted to note is some of their postnatal products contain adaptogenic and herbal blends like ashwagandha, rhodiola, and reishi. While there may be benefits to these ingredients, there is limited research on the efficacy for their use, and they may interact with certain medications. So, these postpartum products may not be suitable for all. We do not recommend adaptogens while pregnant (their prenatals do not contain any), but if you wish to experiment with them post pregnancy, we recommend discussing it with a healthcare professional first, particularly if you are breastfeeding. Iron needs drop from 27 milligrams per day for pregnancy to 18 milligrams for non-pregnant females and 9 milligrams for those that are breastfeeding. Therefore, this prenatal could be a great postpartum supplement as well.

Gummy prenatal vitamins can be an effective option, especially if you have difficulty swallowing pills. But keep in mind there are certain vitamins and minerals that are harder to incorporate into gummies due to the chemical stability of the gummy product. For example, iron is not typically incorporated into gummy vitamins, which is one of the cons of the SmartyPants Prenatal gummy we recommend. However, you can always take a separate iron supplement with a dosage targeted to your individual needs.
