Great Vitamin for MTHFR Deficiency
I was told that with this pregnancy that I have the MTHFR and protein S deficiency and that I had to take a special kind of prenatal, which stunk because I had just purchased a bunch of high quality prenatals off amazon that I can’t use. I was told by my OB to look for a prenatal with methyltetrahydrafolate. This ended up being a difficult task. I could hardly find anything but did eventually find the ritual brand. I was impressed with the clear capsules with the liquid contents where you could see the ingredients. The pill size was also tolerable as I was taking a prenatal previously that was like a horse pill. I also liked the idea of the pill flavoring as supplements can taste awful. I bought the citrus flavor and it didn’t leave any sort of an aftertaste. One thing I wasn’t crazy about was the price as $43 is pretty steep for once a month. I ended up getting the subscription and saving 15% and then I bought a bunch of bottles during cyber week for about $23 to hold me over for the duration of my pregnancy. They also make a postnatal, which from my understanding with the MTHFR gene I will need to take this form of folate for the rest of my life. I don’t recognize if I have any changes as to energy but I am in my last trimester so everything for me is low energy and I’m always tired. Overall, I am pleased with the purchase. This is great for pregnant women/new moms like me that can’t process folic acid normally and need this other form.***UPDATE***I just wanted to update that I am still on this prenatal. It’s been almost 6 months that I’ve been on it and I continue to like taking it. Two capsules a day at night and nothing ever comes back up with an after taste. There’s nothing negative to report. I still recommend this brand and have bottles of the post natal lined up to take after the baby is born.****Final Update****I had the baby and switched over to the postnatal. At the moment the postnatal only comes in a mint flavor as the citrus is unavailable. I can’t say it’s my favorite flavor for a pill but the taste is pretty brief. I suggest this as a post step after birth for any ladies that need a good, comprehensive postnatal, which I have heard we all need for ourselves and for the babies (if you’re breast feeding).

The Only Prenatal I Actually Enjoy Taking!
I’ve tried a few different prenatal vitamins, and Ritual is by far the best. I love that they are clean, vegan-friendly, and made with traceable ingredients — it gives me peace of mind knowing exactly what I’m putting into my body.The lemon-essence capsules are a huge plus! No gross vitamin aftertaste and definitely no nausea like I experienced with other brands. They’re easy to take, even on an empty stomach. I also appreciate that they include the key nutrients doctors recommend like folate, DHA, and choline — all in forms that are actually absorbed well.My energy has been more consistent since switching to these, and I feel so good knowing baby and I are getting the essentials every day. The subscription makes it super convenient too.If you want a high-quality prenatal that doesn’t make you dread taking it — Ritual is 100% worth the price!

Clean, well-designed prenatal vitamin that’s easy on the stomach
I’ve been taking Ritual Essential for Women Prenatal as part of my routine, and I really appreciate how thoughtfully this supplement is designed.What stood out to me first is the clean ingredient profile. It’s vegan, non-GMO, and free from common allergens, artificial colors, and sweeteners, which made me feel comfortable choosing it. The inclusion of key nutrients like folate, choline, and Omega-3 DHA feels well-balanced for before and during pregnancy.The delayed-release capsule is a big plus. It’s designed to dissolve later in the digestive process, and I found it to be gentle on my stomach, even when taken without a heavy meal. The capsules are smooth and easy to swallow.I also like Ritual’s traceability and third-party testing, which adds an extra layer of trust in the quality and sourcing of the ingredients. The light citrus scent included in the bottle makes taking it daily more pleasant.Overall, this is a high-quality prenatal multivitamin that focuses on transparency, simplicity, and ease of use. A great option for anyone looking for a clean and thoughtfully formulated prenatal supplement.

The Best Prenatal I Have Tried
The Ritual Essential for Women Prenatal Multivitamin has been amazing and easily one of the best prenatals I have used. I love that the ingredients are clean and thoughtfully sourced, but what really impressed me is how gentle it was on my stomach. Other prenatals used to make me nauseous and even worsen my acid reflux, but this one actually helped calm it. The capsules are easy to take, the lemon scent is refreshing, and I can feel good knowing I am getting everything my body and baby need. I highly recommend this to any expecting mom who wants something effective and easy on the stomach.

Great but fish breath
Love the easy to take pill and mint flavor. I only give it a 4 star because the fish oil burps I get so I can only take these right before bed or I am nauseous all day with the fish breath

Change Color / Fishy After Taste
These are well-made vitamins with all the key nutrients you need as a pregnant woman. However, a couple of things that I do not like. 1.) The capsule changes from being clear to dark brown inside. I read that this is normal/fine, but it freaked me out. 2.) When I take them, I burp up an unpleasant fish flavor. As I’ve gotten more pregnant and have experienced acid reflux, this has been an awful side effect that really grosses me out.

Best prenatals I’ve tried so far
These are the best prenatals I tried so far. I really like the citrus coated option . The citrus option has been doing me well in the 1st trimester so far . It does have an aftertaste once they digest but I don’t mind it.

Constipating
Product was good, I took it for 1st and half of 2nd trimester and have no real issue. But I found the vitamins content a little limited and the iron in it was constipating.
