Where better to start an Organic and Healthy Mom Blog than at the beginning of motherhood: Getting ready to conceive. My husband and I have come to understand the benefits of organic living. Although organic foods and items may be a little more costly (sometimes a lot more costly), we see it as an investment in our health and our family's future.
Taking care of yourself during pregnancy is the first step to building a healthy baby. Since me and my husband are trying for our first little one, I have been looking into organic prenatal vitamins. Here is what I found.
Guide to Buying Organic Prenatal Vitamins for the Health of You and BabyI find the Rainbow Light the best value for my money. I like the idea of a once-a-day multivitamin rather than brands that suggest 3+ serving per day. This brand also includes some extras that I like to include in my overall diet such as super-greens and raspberry leaf (which aids in menstrual and pregnancy discomforts). What are your favorite brands?

For the health of mothers and their unborn babies, many--for good reason--turn to taking prenatal vitamins while pregnant and lactating (and even when trying to get pregnant too). There are a multitude of options out there, and although opting for an organic prenatal vitamin might be the best, some don't know where to start when it comes to finding what's right for them. Here are five brands of organic prenatal vitamins to consider when deciding what will be best for you and your baby during your pregnancy. As always, checking with your doctor about specific products will help make sure you're putting into your body what it needs and not what it doesn't.
