Nature Made Prenatal + DHA 200 mg Multivitamin Softgels 150 Ct

Contains all the good stuff but wow the pill is so fishy! The smell is so strong and the pills are so oily, it was extremely hard to swallow with morning sickness and even after the first trimester. I had to hold my breath to swallow it! Even my husband had a hard time to smell it.

The decal is not smooth and text is blur. Bottle look very old and many scratch.

First off, I am a real customer and I was NOT asked to review this product. With that being said, I believe that out of all of the methods and products I have tried to get pregnant, THIS MAY BE WHAT GOT ME PREGNANT!!! For about a year I have tried just about all of the fertile lubricants, fertility supplements and ovulation prediction kits. My biggest problem was being extremely fry all of the time. Even during ovulation I was more moist than normal but my cf would dry quickly and I would resort to lube... LOTS of lube. I ordered these prenatals in June but I didn't start taking them daily until October, 2016. By November I noticed that I had become more moist than usual, particularly during ovulation. In December I was so wet during ovulation that I didn't even need to use an ovulation test. I could tell that I was definitely fertile and ready to conceive! We didn't need ANY lube!! After we did the deed I was pretty confident that that was the winning night. I took a pregnancy test a few days BEFORE my missed period and I already had two very dark lines, I was indeed pregnant! HERE'S THE SECOND BEST PART: I am now 10 weeks and haven't had any morning sickness! I read that taking prenatals with DHA while ttc lowers your odds of having morning sickness. I will add that along with taking the NatureMade Multi+DHA, I was also taking 81mg chewable aspirin and B-complex vitamins everyday. I was drinking about 5-6 glasses of water daily (though you should drink about 8 glasses daily).

Great quality product. I haven't noticed any nausea and Ive tried all prenatals including the prescription ones and I have a weak stomach. Plus, the selling point is the DHA added. Large pill but reasonable to swallow and only 1 a day which is the best part. Nature made has best quality fish oil overall and their DHA doesn't contain any extra vitamin e (at least not these newer bottles) which is a huge plus as too much vita,in e is harmful to your baby. Also, it's the only smart prenatal to put less than 15IUs of vitamin e in the prenatal itself as again most of these Prenatals, even prescription ones, make the grave mistake of putting 30IUs of vitamin e when more than 15ius has proven to cause heart defects and other issues to the unborn fetus. As far as all the complaints about red and yellow colorists etc, these new bottles don't contain any as they responded to complaints and removed them. Giving 4 not 5 stars as while it meets the requirements and wisely takes caution to not go over the recommended limits with each vitamin, it does miss out other, while less crucial, still beneficial vitamins and minerals including copper, iodine and selenium. Rainbow Lite has better ingredients and from whole food sources as well as being a 1 a day pill but not any DHA so in the end opted for this. Also, their product has too much vitamin e and so erring on the side of caution, I had to go with these. Overall, the best option.

This product is exactly as described by the manufacturer and other reviewers. The size of the pill is in the eye of the beholder, so to speak. Yes the pills are larger than average, but they are not a problem for me to swallow or digest and are probably on par with the size of most vitamins. My bigger issue is that if there is a side effect listed on the side of a bottle, I am almost certain to suffer it (hooray me). This product is no different. The good news is that if I take them on a full stomach, the effects aren't as bad, but if I take them on an empty stomach, I feel AWFUL for about an hour. Since I have discovered a way to take my daily dose without feeling poorly, I will continue using this product and would recommend it to others. Just be aware that there are potential side effects, but you might be able to work around them and still be satisfied with your purchase. Other than the nausea, this is a great product. I never have a fishy after taste, nor is there a bad odor to the pills or in the bottle. Some people report that they have digestive issues or heartburn as a result of taking the vitamins, but I only had the nausea, but as previously stated, I found a way to work around that.

Yes, if you haven't notice I am not a female however I take these things very seriously and we actually purchased this product at our doctor's recommendation. For the most part ever prenatal vitamin is slightly different but our doctor was only concerned about a couple major ingredients which every vitamin satisfied. The reason why this one stood out is that it is a soft gel and only one pill to get both the vitamins and the fish oil/ Dha which makes it easier/ less of a hassle. The doctor mentioned taking too many pills at once reduces the absorption so this was a good way to not have to worry about that. Also having a 150 pill bottle is almost enough for 5 months (give or take a few days) so two will be enough for the entire pregnancy but Nature Made makes smaller bottles I thought this was pretty convenient. It is hard to be convincing because picking the right multivitamin for you or your spouse is really up to you and the doctor. Sure there are tons of opinions online and even your doctor will have their opinion but in the end it is how well the body holds up. My wife did have a short period where her nails thinned so we has to increase calcium intake a little but other then that there has not been any noticeable deficiency other then iron which is common. If you are reading this review I will assume congratulations are in order and we have tried two other brands of vitamins and will say my wife is impartial to which is better. I hope this helps you as if this is your first child like me, this whole thing is a new experience. Best of luck everyone.
