Stage 1 - 1st Trimester (Weeks 0-13) - 90 capsules

Serving Size: 45

Prenatal Ease Stage 1 is a comprehensive prenatal multivitamin specially formulated for pregnant women in their first trimester (weeks 0-13). It contains 20 essential vitamins and minerals to support your developing baby, including vitamin B6 and ginger to help alleviate morning sickness and provide digestive comfort. It's also recognized by The Society of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists of Canada (SOGC).

The first trimester is a critical time as all the baby’s major organs take shape. Your body will also undergo significant hormonal changes to accommodate the new baby. As a result, you will start to notice common symptoms of pregnancy such as breast tenderness, fatigue, increased vaginal discharge, and morning sickness.

Many women who suffer from morning sickness are given prescription drugs such as antihistamines (dimenhydrinate, promethazine and doxylamine) by their doctors. However, these drugs have many side effects such as drowsiness, blurry vision, headaches, urinary retention, and many more. Prenatal Ease Stage 1 does not contain any antihistamines, and instead contains premium grade ginger.

Ginger has been used for thousands of years by many cultures. It is heavily used in Ayurvedic and Traditional Chinese Medicine, to treat dyspepsia and colic. Today, ginger is known to be effective in treating motion sickness, postoperative nausea and morning sickness. Ginger is also recommended by The Society of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists of Canada (SOGC) in managing morning sickness.

Many studies also suggest another cause of morning sickness is the high levels of iron in many “one-size-fits-all” prenatal multivitamins. However, having too much iron during the first trimester is unnecessary. The biggest demand for iron is actually in the second or third trimester where your blood volume increases dramatically.

Prenatal Ease Stage 1 contains just enough iron for a healthy pregnancy, but not high enough to cause morning sickness, and constipation. Prenatal Ease Stage 1 follows all the latest recommendations by The Society of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists of Canada in managing morning sickness.
