What are the best prenatal vitamins?

The Best Prenatal Vitamins

When you're pregnant, you need more of many vitamins and minerals than you normally would. Your daily intake requirements for minerals like folic acid (folate), calcium, and iron will increase, and these vitamins and minerals are essential for proper development and growth of the fetus.

The best prenatal vitamins contain more than the daily intake requirements of these vitamins and minerals, but you can actually damage your baby's health by taking too many of some of these vitamins and minerals. So, the best prenatal vitamins are vitamins that your doctor prescribes. Although you can get over the counter prenatal vitamins, they may contain too much of some nutrients and not enough of others, and they could be synthetic, which can also harm your baby's health. The best prenatal vitamins come from your doctor, so they can monitor all the supplements you're taking for Mom and baby's health.
