As your baby grows and develops, so too does your demand for nutrients. The need for iron in particular increases in the second and third trimesters, and this is the stage of pregnancy when you’re more likely to tolerate iron supplementation. Our vegan-friendly prenatal and breastfeeding vitamins are designed to support prenatal health by supplying required amounts of vitamins and minerals to contribute to a smooth and successful pregnancy.
Prenatal Trimester 2 & 3 Plus Breastfeeding is a specially formulated pregnancy and breastfeeding vitamin designed to be taken twice a day to enhance prenatal health during pregnancy and maternal health during breastfeeding.
This pregnancy and breastfeeding vitamin is a step up from the Prenatal Trimester One with Ginger formula, providing even more of the key nutrients required in the last half of pregnancy and breastfeeding, including iodine, choline, zinc, vitamin D, and activated B vitamins.
It also contains 24mg in a daily dose of bioavailable elemental iron bisglycinate as Ferrochel® . Iron bisglycinate is a well absorbed and well tolerated form of iron.
This formula does not contain copper. During pregnancy, copper levels rise naturally, so copper supplementation is not usually necessary.
This careful selection of vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants supports foetal development and placenta growth while maintaining good maternal health. It also helps to enhance postnatal health when you continue to take the pregnancy and breastfeeding vitamin every day following the birth, until your baby is no longer breastfeeding.
Directions for use
Take two capsules every day with food, or as directed by your healthcare practitioner. It's recommended to take one capsule with breakfast and then one capsule with lunch.
If you have been taking Prenatal Trimester One with Ginger during the first 14-16 weeks of your pregnancy (or whenever morning sickness has subsided), continue on with Prenatal Trimester 2 & 3 Plus Breastfeeding for the remainder of your pregnancy and while breastfeeding.
Continue taking this pregnancy and breastfeeding vitamin until your baby is fully weaned from breastfeeding. It's advisable to continue taking this pregnancy and breastfeeding multivitamin after the birth of your baby for the duration of your breastfeeding period, so your baby receives the nutrients they need from your breast milk.
Store below 25°C in a cool, dry place. Please store in the fridge in hot and humid conditions.
