53 | Choosing the Best Prenatal & Postpartum Supplements: What I Actually Take and Why
Not all supplements are created equal — and the one you’re taking might not be giving you what you actually need.
A client came to me during pregnancy wanting to make sure her nutrition was on point before baby arrived. She was already eating well and taking a prenatal supplement — but when we looked at the label together, we realized something important: it was missing several key nutrients she needed the most.
And she's not alone. Many prenatal and postpartum supplements are under-dosed, missing critical nutrients, or include forms of vitamins that your body can’t even use effectively.
In this episode, I’m walking you through:
The most common nutrient deficiencies during pregnancy and postpartum
What to look for in a high-quality prenatal or postpartum supplement
Why your energy, mood, recovery, and even milk supply could be affected by your supplement choice
What I personally take and recommend for my clients
When to consider a custom approach (like working with a dietitian)
Whether you’re pregnant, newly postpartum, or a few years into motherhood, this episode will help you make informed decisions that actually support your body’s needs.
Here are the supplements I discussed in this episode: https://us.fullscript.com/plans/vwarner1670162649-prental-pregnancy-postpartum-supplements
