New Chapter, Postnatal Vitamins Lactation Supplement, Complete Multivitamin with Fermented Vitamin D3 + B Vitamins, Made with Organic Vegetables & Herbs, Non-GMO Ingredients, 192 Count

Excellent multivitamin for a new mom!
I have been searching for a while for a good company that makes high quality vitamins that will not just cover gaps in my nutrition, but will genuinely improve my energy and health. After much research, I started taking these vitamins a couple months ago along with a Calcium Magnesium supplement. These seem to fit the bill and provide just what I needed.I struggled with the baby blues during the first few months after my son was born but after a few weeks on these, my symptoms disappeared. No more depression, anxiety, or irrational new mom worries.Also, me and my exclusively breastfed baby have had incredible immunity since we began taking these! Despite my husband and many other friends and family members getting sick, we have been completely healthy. My husband was kissing me and our son right before he developed severe flu symptoms and we somehow emerged without catching his nasty bug! I am not sure if it’s the high vitamin D levels or what seems to have done it, but I’m sure we would have gotten sick without these vitamins. I feel a noticeable difference day to day when I forget to take them.These have also helped with my energy level. I struggled with severe post-partum fatigue and was desperate to wake up with the energy I needed to be a good mom. Actually what spurred my search for a good multivitamin was that extreme fatigue. Somehow, these fixed it!I don’t expect everyone to have such a glowing review about their experience with this product. I had unique needs and circumstances and this fantastic multi seemed to be exactly what I needed. It provided nutritional support when my new busy schedule got in the way of having 3 healthy meals a day, and helped with preexisting conditions like anxiety, depression, fatigue and more.One caveat with this multivitamin is it will turn your urine a brighter green or yellow color—this is normal, and just means your body is expelling excess B vitamins.The serving size is three tablets, but compared to my prenatal, they are smaller and easy to get down. I take all three with my gumbo Cal/Mag in one handful in the evening before bed!Update: After using this product for a while, I have developed some intestinal sensitivities to the vitamins. They seem to cause diarrhea a few hours after taking them when taken at night before bed, regardless of whether I’ve eaten previously. However, if they are taken in the morning, this issue seems to go away. I presume that this is because at night I am not eating at regular intervals as I would be during the day. I will keep using them but switch to having them with breakfast.

THE BEST!!
This vitamin is absolutely amazing. It’s packed with goodies including oats (helped my milk supply!!!!) and probiotics. I lost 2.5L of blood during delivery and this kept my iron up enough that I didn’t need supplemented! It doesn’t make your stomach hurt. My hair and nails are so thick. I just ordered my second bottle and I’ll be sure to have it on hand for baby #2 and recommend it to all other moms!

Energy, milk supply, recovery
3 years later and getting around to writing a review because… life + kids…. you know? I started taking these while still in the hospitalrecovering from childbirth with my 8 lb 10 oz baby. I didn’t take anything like this after my first, 7 lb 9 oz baby and my recovery took weeks and I was miserable. After 4 days of taking these religiously (3x a day) while nursing and taking care of a 5 year old and recovering with my second baby girl, I was on a short walk around the block. Granted it was a short walk, but it felt good to be up and moving. I took these for several months while nursing. I lost all the baby weight and then some. After about 6 months, when my baby started nursing less, I could tell these had become too strong (headaches) for me, so I stopped taking. I’m doing this review now that I’m looking for a daily multi by the same company. Good luck for the ladies- these worked great for me and helped me with energy, mood, weight management, milk supply and recovery.

Expensive, but for the first time ever I have baby hairs!
I’ve been taking the New Chapter Postnatal Vitamins Lactation Supplement, and it has made a significant difference in how I feel.Pros:• Increased Energy: Before taking these vitamins, I felt extreme exhaustion beyond just sleep deprivation. Now, I have a lot more energy and no longer feel dizzy.• Improved Hair Growth: My hair was falling out like crazy, but after a few months on these vitamins, my hair is growing beautifully. For the first time ever, I have baby hairs!Cons:• High Price: The cost is quite high• No Impact on Milk Supply: I didn’t notice any difference in my milk supply. Water and coconut water remain the only effective ways for me to increase it.Overall, despite the high price, these vitamins have been worth it for the increased energy and improved hair health. If something helps me taking care of my baby in the best way possible I say it’s worth it!
