Learn More

Support your body with essential nutrients for fetal development, hormonal and mood balance, postpartum recovery, healthy breastmilk, a healthy inflammatory response, and more.

Our Prenatal Multivitamin Pro includes 26 bioavailable forms of vitamins and minerals that mothers and babies need, and 12x the nutrients of leading prenatals.* Our multivitamin was formulated to provide your body with what's needed throughout your pregnancy.

In the 1st trimester

  • Our Prenatal Multivitamin Pro provides radically better nutrient support as energy and nutrient demands increase with the early physiological changes of pregnancy. We intentionally added 40mg of Vitamin B6 to support occasional nausea relief.
  • DHA helps lay the foundation for your baby’s brain and nervous system, starting in the earliest weeks of pregnancy.

In the 2nd trimester

  • Radically better nutrient support for both mom and baby with B vitamins to support red blood cell formation and energy production and Choline for healthy baby brain development.
  • Omega-3s support your baby’s rapidly developing brain and eyes as growth accelerates in the second trimester.

In the 3rd trimester

  • Radically better nutrient support at a time when nutrient transfer to baby is at its peak to support nervous system maturation, immune system priming, physical growth and development.
  • Omega-3s in the third trimester provide support for baby's brain in its peak growth spurt and support nervous system maturation. They also support maternal resilience as pregnancy reaches its final stage.

Iron is critical for a healthy pregnancy. We offer Iron separately to allow for personalized dosing and to minimize nutrient interactions that may negatively impact absorption. Our Ferrochel Iron has been clinically shown to cause fewer gastrointestinal upsets compared to other forms of Iron* and is bound to Glycine for better absorption and digestive comfort.*

How to Use

Prenatal Multivitamin Pro:

  • When to take: With a full meal, ideally in the morning or around lunchtime for optimal energy throughout the day. Avoid within 5 hours of bedtime due to energizing nutrients
  • Flexible dosing: Split your serving between meals if preferred
  • Starting out: If switching from a less nutrient-dense prenatal, start with half doses and work your way up to the full recommended dosage. Begin with 4 capsules, work up to 8 capsules

Iron: Take one (1) capsule up to four times daily, as advised by your health practitioner. We suggest taking away from meals and your Prenatal Multivitamin Pro. Our Iron is absorbed most easily on an empty stomach*.

Omega-3 Fish Oil: Take two (2) softgels daily with food

Our products were designed to work together, these products can be taken together or separately throughout the day.

Store fully sealed in a cool dry place. Keep out of reach of children. Consult your healthcare practitioner before use if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, have a medical condition, or are taking medications.

What's the difference between the 3 Prenatal Multis?

We offer three prenatal multivitamin options:

Prenatal Multivitamin Pro vs. Powder:
Our Prenatal Multivitamin Pro (8 per day) and Prenatal Multi Powder (2 scoops per day) contain equivalent nutrients—it's just personal preference. You can also combine them (4 capsules = 1 scoop). For example, take one scoop in a smoothie with breakfast and 4 capsules with lunch.

Prenatal Multivitamin:
Our Prenatal Multivitamin is a simplified 3-capsule version with robust amounts of the most impactful nutrients (like Folate), but reduced levels of space-heavy nutrients (Calcium, Choline, Magnesium). It's ideal for first-trimester nausea or longer-term use after breastfeeding. Our full Capsules (8/day) and Powder (2 scoops/day) are designed for optimal support through pregnancy and postpartum, including breastfeeding.

Read more about why we created Prenatal Multivitamins.

Why do the amounts of some of the nutrients in Prenatal Multvitamin exceed the percent Daily Value?

Daily Values (%DV) are based on the Recommended Dietary Allowances (RDAs). These standards reflect the bare minimum needed to avoid a disease condition. In addition, 83% of the studies that informed the current RDAs excluded women. 

Significant research suggests that, for certain nutrients, amounts above the RDA may better support maternal and infant outcomes. 

Our Prenatal Multivitamin is formulated to reflect both established standards and current clinical research, with dosing decisions guided by safety data and practitioner expertise.

What's the difference between the 2 Omegas?

Both are highly supportive sources of Omega-3s. The main difference is sourcing: our Omega-3 is from fish oil, while Omega-3+ Vegan is from microalgae. The Omega-3+ Vegan also contains additional antioxidant support and a Choline boost.

We recommend Omega-3+ Vegan if you're vegan or need extra Choline, and Omega-3 from fish oil if you're getting sufficient Choline from your multivitamin and diet.

How do I know if I need Omega-3?

Research shows that up to 95% of women are not getting Omega-3s enough from their diet. Even if you are not deficient, additional Omega-3 intake can help support your health, especially during pregnancy as DHA makes up about ⅓ of brain lipids. Pregnancy and breastfeeding take a toll on women, as the body gives up nutrient reserves to build baby. Baby's optimal brain, nerve, and eye development is supported by ample intake of Omega-3 from the start.*

What makes Needed’s Prenatal Iron different than others?

We offer an Iron bound to Glycine as Ferrous Bisglycinate Chelate (Ferrochel™) in 13.5mg capsules that allow you to more easily dose up or down as you need. Ferrous Bisglycinate Chelate is a mineral chelate in which Iron is bound to two Glycine amino acid molecules. It is easily absorbed by the body and, unlike most other Iron forms, it minimizes constipation and gastric upset.

Why do you offer Iron separately from your Prenatal Multivitamin Pro?

We recommend taking Iron away from our Prenatal Multivitamin Pro for optimal absorption. We also recommend taking only as much as you need (some mothers do not need to supplement), as too much supplemental Iron can generate oxidative stress and alter the gut microbiome. Talk to your health practitioner about testing your Iron status before, during, and after pregnancy, and supplement if you are falling short. Our Iron is bound to Glycine for better absorption and digestive comfort.*

    Great product!

    Wanted to start prenatals and an iron supplement 3 months prior to trying to get pregnant. I researched a lot of brands and I love the cleanliness of this brand and ingredients. I also loved that there was the option to have the iron supplement separate as iron should be taken on an empty stomach and the prenatals taken with food where a lot of companies had the iron in the prenatal which affects absorption. Also, having it separate is beneficial if doctors need to adjust iron amounts in later pregnancy or reduce if causing constipation etc. Great product and company, definitely recommend!

    Loving these!

    I am not yet pregnant, but have been taking these for several months. I love the natural ingredients and knowing that I’m consuming top-quality vitamins. I believe pre-conception nutrition is something so important that’s often overlooked! I love that these have everything I could need.
