Protect your health while breastfeeding with this comprehensive postnatal multivitamin.
Nursing Postnatal is a comprehensive multivitamin for breastfeeding mothers to maintain their own health and produce nutritious breast milk—because you’re still eating for two!
Producing breast milk takes extra calories and nutrients. To maintain their own health and produce nutritious breast milk, breastfeeding mothers need to be sure to eat a well-balanced and calorie-rich diet, stay adequately hydrated, and get plenty of rest. How easy is that when you’re a new mother? Not!
As a result, doctors recommend that breastfeeding moms supplement with a good multivitamin. Often, a new mother will simply continue taking the prenatal vitamin she used during her pregnancy. Unfortunately, most prenatal vitamins do not contain enough of the specific nutrients that lactating women need to ensure health of both mother and baby.
Nursing Postnatal Breastfeeding Multivitamin was designed to meet the unique nutritional needs of breastfeeding mothers. It provides comprehensive vitamin and mineral support, including 100% Daily Value of several vitamins and minerals, and extra amounts of key vitamins known to be especially important for breastfeeding mothers, including Vitamin D and the B vitamins.
Similar to Nursing Blend, Nursing Postnatal contains a full complement of vitamins and minerals in just the right amounts to keep mom and baby healthy, but does not contain the herbal blend found in Nursing Blend. This breastfeeding multivitamin is intended for nursing moms looking for nutritional support who have no concerns about the quantity of the breast milk they are producing.

I have been trying to find the best prenatal/postnatal while breastfeeding and I feel these give me the right amount of vitamins I need. I’m super exhausted it’s almost unbearable but these give me a little boost. Also I’ve seen reviews stating these pills taste awful and I don’t mind them at all!!

I’ve been taking this multivitamin since I gave birth and my breast milk is nourishing by baby. I also produce a lot of breast milk enough to pump and store for my child. Now my child is 4 months and with such a superb multivitamin my child first tooth is popping out!
I highly recommend this product!

I used this vitamin in conjunction with NB & another prenatal & my milk supply was very rich for my little one. I nursed him for 2 consecutive years until Mar 2016 when we found out we were expecting.

Anastaziya –
I am using a combination of the nursing time tea and the supplement. Within 2 days I saw a noticeable difference in the amount of milk I was producing. As long as I keep up with my fluids and my baby or the pump was completely draining my breast, I had more than enough to feed my baby and most times I have enough to pump extra afterwards. I would recommend spliting up the pills so you can get coverage all day. I found taking them at one time for the day meant that at 16-24hours my supply dips. I usually take one every 12 hrs. with breakfast and dinner, 8 in the morning and 8 at night.

I was looking for a vitamin since I was nursing and was told continue taking prenatal but it
kept forgetting. I did some research online for something to take while nursing and this is the 2nd month I have been taking them and they make me feel great! My baby is going to be 8 months and I am still nursing and have energy and I know these have truly helped. Didn’t notice any difference in my milk but it has definitely made a difference in my health and energy.
