Vitamin D Drops

How are you EBF mamas getting vitamin D to your littles? I use wellement drops but struggle to get it in her mouth and not even sure she is absorbing it. If you supplement yourself instead of baby, what are you taking?

New prenatal/postnatal fitness class

Hi all, I just thought this might interest some of you. Two new classes (prenatal and postnatal) have started at the Better gym in Kentish Town.

Ladies I’ve been trying to switch things up with my food nothing wild, just adding a little variety. I forgot the croutons, so I tossed in some sourdough bread instead, and honestly… you’d never know the difference!

What’s one meal you can never get tired of, no matter how many times you eat it?

Fish oil

Have any you started giving your kiddo fish oil and seen a difference? I was reading a book saying there have been studies of giving kids omega 3 supplements and it having positive effects for their ADHD!

Starting the gym in 2nd trimester

Dos and donts to starting the gym in the 2nd trimester? I’ve heard there’s many benefits when it comes to delivery and recovery when you stay active during pregnancy. I haven’t worked out in over a year so this would be a fresh start in the gym for me again. Anyone else doing this?

Folic acid 5mg

I was prescribed 5mg of folic acid when I first found out I was pregnant - I’m now 12 weeks, should I stop taking it now? I’ve read online it’s only for 12 weeks but wasn’t sure if that’s the same with the higher dosage.
