What vitamins should I take during and after my pregnancy?

Preconception and 1st trimester

During the conception phase and throughout pregnancy, pregnant women are strongly advised to take vitamin B9. This vitamin is essential for ensuring the healthy development of the baby's brain and spine.

Vitamin B9 🥗

The average daily intake of vitamin B9 is approximately 600 µg of EFA - Dietary Folate Equivalent (or approximately 350µg of Folic Acid). A deficiency in folic acid could increase the risk of premature birth.

Iron 🩸

Iron requirements during pregnancy are approximately 18 to 25 mg per day at the time of pregnancy. Iron deficiency in pregnant women can cause anemia, leading to shortness of breath and reduced oxygen supply for the mother-to-be and the baby.

Omega 3 DHA 🐟

The recommended intake of Omega 3 DHA for pregnant and postpartum women is 200 to 300 mg per day. A deficiency in Omega 3 DHA can impact the neurological and visual development of the fetus and increase the risk of postpartum depression.

Vitamin B12 🧠

Vitamin B12 intake of 5 µg for omnivorous pregnant women and 10 µg for vegetarian or vegan pregnant women. Vitamin B12 deficiencies can have a lasting impact on cognitive development as well as the development of the fetus's nervous system.

Vitamin D ☀️

Vitamin D intake should be 600 IU/day throughout pregnancy, according to ANSES. Vitamin D deficiency during pregnancy poses a risk because it can increase the risk of neonatal hypocalcemia and rickets, as well as the risk of preeclampsia.

Calcium 🦴

Pregnant women should consume approximately 1000 mg of calcium per day. Calcium deficiency in pregnant women can increase the risk of preeclampsia and affect fetal bone development.

Food supplements during and after pregnancy

1. The mother's blood is the baby's only source of nutrition: Pregnancy and breastfeeding are periods when eating habits impact the development of the fetus. Ensuring sufficient nutrient intake is essential. The mother must ensure her intake of key vitamins and minerals for the baby's growth (vitamin B12, B9, vitamin D, calcium, iron)

2. Diet is not always sufficient : During pregnancy, nutritional needs increase to support the growth of the fetus. It is important that the diet is balanced and of good quality. "Eating for two is above all eating better" by avoiding overly processed foods and those rich in additives. Appropriate micronutrient supplements are particularly useful during this period.

3. The body is under a lot of stress: During pregnancy and the postpartum period, the body undergoes major changes such as hormonal changes and an increase in metabolism. It is normal to feel very tired and stressed during pregnancy and after childbirth.
