    5.0 out of 5 stars Take at night!
    Reviewed in the United States on April 6, 2024
    Love:
    - Hair and nails are strong and thick
    - Skin has been nicely glow since starting these
    - Noticeably more mentally clear with more energy when I take these vs when I skip doses
    - No vitamin burps

    Dislike:
    - Can only take them at night otherwise I get super nauseous. However since switching to night I noticed morning sickness was a lot more bare able.
    - constipation! I sometimes have to skip a day or two to encourage my body to let go.
    - they smell strong

    Overall, I love these vitamins. They really do work. Just find the best way to take them for you and you’ll be really happy

    5.0 out of 5 stars Best prenatals for 3 pregnancies and postpartum
    Reviewed in the United States on December 29, 2024
    Absolutely love Thorne prenatal vitamins. Only ones that didn’t make me gag and feel nauseous. Easy to swallow and settle well even without food in stomach. No strong vitamin smell. I take the DHA with it and add Vit K and Vit D. Used for all 3 pregnancies and throughout postpartum. I am
    very healthy and only natural practices in my daily life. No chemicals and only quality meats, wild seafood, organic produce. I do have a sweet tooth, however. I feel more energized, nutritionally satisfied, less sugar cravings, and overall healthier when taking these prenatals. I take only a few times a week as I intuitively listen to my body’s needs.

    Like:
    -noticeably stronger hair and nails (never happened with other multivitamins or prenatals, or hair/nail/skin vitamins)
    -noticeably glowier / healthier looking skin
    -high quality ingredients
    -reputable brand

    Dislike:
    -very mild iron scent, just swallow them quickly
    -nausea: to troubleshoot this side effect I take all three at night right before bed and never have an issue. They make me very nauseous if I take them in the morning. I’ve never tried taking them in the middle of the day like some other users have posted.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Unicorn Pregnancy
    Reviewed in the United States on December 25, 2024
    I have had the best pregnancy experience (very different from the women in my family), and I definitely feel like this pre-natals supported a lot of my nutritional intake needs to sustain my energy throughout pregnancy as well not causing any nausea. I’m getting towards the end of my third trimester now and I have had all great bloodwork, high levels of energy, and healthy check ups all through out. Obviously other factors are at play here (support, diet, exercise), but these were not the original pre-Natals I started with and when I switched I felt a huge difference!

    1.0 out of 5 stars Contains lead, cadmium and arsenic
    Reviewed in the United States on November 15, 2024
    Not returnable!! This product was recently lab tested by a third party and was positive does the different heavy metals- lead, cadmium and arsenic. See the Simple Lab results at Lead Safe Mama’s website, searching for the Thorne Prenatal article.
    I’m really P.O.’d because I have been taking this the whole time I was pregnant and nursing, with this child and the last, and lead attaches to calcium receptors in the brain, leading to lower IQ as well as a long list of other cognitive and physiological disorders. Cadmium causes cancer. And everyone knows arsenic is terrible for you, that’s a given. I trusted this brand as it was recommended by many naturopathic dr’s I have seen before, so I thought they regularly tested for these heavy metals contaminating their supplements. Canceled my subscribe and save for all their supplements. Keep an eye out for the ones testing safe at the aforementioned website. Nordic Naturals and Mary Ruths have some testing safe, but Mary Ruths liquid pre&post natal vitamin also did test positive for those heavy metals.

    High quality for a good price, clean ingredients, easy on my stomach. I've been taking for 5 months and can tell a huge difference in energy, skin, hair, digestion. I'll keep coming back.

    4.0 out of 5 stars packed prenatal, makes you nauseous without big meal
    Reviewed in the United States on November 23, 2024
    I started taking these 1 week postpartum (I threw up trying to take any sort of pill during pregnancy & could have neeeever gotten one of these down let alone three at a time) because they are jaaaaaam packed compared to other prenantals and I could finally swallow pills again. I'm 12 weeks PP now and haven't done any bloodwork, but am feeling really really good and I'm sure these prenatals have helped. These definitely made me nauseous if I didn't take them with a big meal (I even threw up one time I was so nauseous), I've started taking them after I eat dinner just to be sure I have enough food in me. They do have a bit of an odd smell / taste but what supplement doesn't. Overall super packed prenatal / nursing supplement!

    Your skin, nails and hair will thank you for using this. I came across this supplement after reading a book about fertility. I ordered 3 bottles and I’ve been taking it everyday. I noticed my sling is glowing, my nails are stronger and my hair is becoming thicker. Although it’s a bit more expensive than most popular brands, it is still worth buying it. Also it does not upset your stomach which is a huge plus.
