I always love your videos Bridget! And I'm so grateful that you offered the Mother's Day discount on the built to birth course. I was able to buy it and I am loving it so far! Thank you for your wealth of knowledge and all that you do! ❤️
We've talked a lot about weight loss supplements in our network, but we often miss what I think is a key point: supplements are really only part of any successful weight loss program. The real key to success is learning how to eat properly-and maybe even take regular exercise (c'mon, you knew that was coming!) So, before you try any weight loss supplement you should be thinking long and hard about what it is that got you into your current state of being overweight or obese in the first place! And then once you've figured out where things went wrong, you need to have a solid plan in place to fix them. Otherwise, all those pills and shakes will be just another waste of money on diet products that don't work-in other words, pointless.
I really recomment taking alge oil for omega 3 instead of fish oil, because of the contamination and overfishing. Even farm fish is really gross. Seaspiracy is also a very interesting documentary ☺
The clear bottle’s a representation of the value we place on transparency and, if stored as directed, should not compromise any of the ingredients. Oxidation shouldn't happen with these, so long as the vitamins are stored in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight :)
We produce collagen ourselves by consuming vitamin C rich food. Just eat a lot of fruit, that's also great for you and your baby 💚 Collagen supplements are so unnecessary and not worth the money
Hey Bridget , I took a breastfeeding course and the midwife mentions that any kind of supplement can cause fussy, colicky babies because they change the taste of our milk. What do you think about this? I stopped taking postnatal vitamins because of it. My skin has been so dry though..
I just want to say that we produce collagen ourselves by consuming vitamin C rich food. Eat a lot of fruit. Collagen supplements are so unnecessary and not worth the money.
This is so helpful! I saw that the post natal vitamin is infused with mint which is known to deplete breast milk production. Is this safe for breastfeeding moms?
Through food is way better. I've heard a lot of bad things about prenatals depleting other nutrients. Vit d is a hormone not a vitamin so it can mess with hormones & lowers vit a which leads to low copper & not absorbing iron good
Am at the hospital hopefully about to go home in a few hrs with baby still in my belly, not car seat at 34 wks! I had taken vitamins and supplements the same ones I saw in your thumbnail and this answers a burning question I’ve had about I can restart my regimen. Thank you 🙏🏻
Could you make a video on rib pain while pregnant, i put hot compress but i can't breathe deep n it last for many hours. I can't even lie down n it's scary
I dealt with the same! Avoided taking Tylenol as much as possible, but got the okay from my doctor to use as needed when rib pain didn’t allow me to sleep. I also added more pillows in bed at night to help find a more comfortable position that put less strain on my ribs and sternum
Hi I am 11m postpartum and at 9th month postpartum my first period came back and the bleeding is still going on, recently 3weeks had IUD. Bleeding is still happening since 10days everyday in the morning feeling menstrual cramps like in abdomen, leg and left breast. My ob did scanning and she said everything is normal. Unsure what’s going on, how to control these pains. Taking progesterone for blood control
I always used Vitex from Gaia brand to regulate my period since I’m over 40. I’m currently pregnant and don’t use it. But organic maca and vitex (chaste berry tree) are known to be used by women for centuries to enhance fertility and regulate the cycle by making it 28 days. Do get a 2nd opinion on your cycle though.
Do you have another video explaining Vitamin D? Because I’m confused on why do you give your baby vitamin d drops if the ritual vitamin has vitamin d and your also taking vitamin d vitamin which those vitamin contains 5000 iu. Another thing I’m confused about is the vitamin d drops you mentioned “BioGaia” says its for colic babies . My baby does not have colic can I still give him those drops ?
Thank you for sharing Bridget! I normally don’t comment on videos but I saw you added this new video and I’m due in one week. I think this is very good information that your doctors don’t tell you about . I bought some of this items and I’m excited to try it. This is my 3 rd pregnancy I’m hoping to see a difference in my postpartum recovery this time around.Thanks again!
Our body synthesize collagen itself. We just need Vitamin C for that. So a high fruit diet ist perfect. Eat a lot of fruit and vitamin C rich food like paprika and your skin will glow. No need for a juice of cooked bones of dead animals. Omega 3 (EPA+DHA) are found in Alge. You can get Omega 3 Alge oil. No need for fish oil. The fish even get their Omega 3 from alge. So alge is the no. 1 source in nature anyway. Fish is also contaminated with heavy metals, pesticides and cholesterol. All essential amino acids (protein), minerals and vitamins are easy to get from a whole food plant based diet. Eat fresh sauerkraut or kimchi for probiotics or coconut Yogurt. Even Soy yoghurt is very healthy. But you don't even have to consume probiotic foods. It's enough if you eat PREbiotic food. Our body turn the pre's into pro's. You just have to eat fresh vegetables for that, that's it 😊 I hope I could help 💚
And if you're a vegetarian or a vegan you don't even have to supplement folate, like most people on a animal protein based diet should. Very interesting :) You can check out these 2 videos, if you want ☺ m.ua-cam.com/video/gpJ0PruIwCM/v-deo.html and m.ua-cam.com/video/tdBtlepMi4k/v-deo.html
There’s a few vegetarian and vegan friendly brands. I was taking deva but switched to solgar recently. Ritual is too expensive for me but that might be just where I live. Try and eat plenty of fruits, veg, nuts, seeds and grain.
Both our prenatal and postnatal contain omega-3 DHA! The main difference for us is Essential Prenatal was formulated with 12 key nutrients for before and during pregnancy,* whereas Essential Postnatal was formulated for the new nutrient demands on a mother for 6 months postpartum, and throughout lactation.* Let us know if you have any other questions!
@@ritualvitamins thanks for the response. Im new to this. Ill be having my first baby in July. Ive been taking the Pink Stork Prenatal. I like natural ingredients. It sounds like a post natal has extra nutrients for breastfeeding?

Thank you so much for this info! It's so important that we take care of ourselves postpartum!
Absolutely!
Magnesium oil is really important.
I just had a baby a few days ago!!! This video could not have come at a better time. I used your link and coupons for a few items. Thank you❤️❤️❤️
We can't wait to hear what you think!

Omega 3 is a pufa. Inflammation, oxidation , messes with hormones etc
What's a pufa?
Thank You for your recommendation! I love your videos!

Ok vegan
Can I know wether I can take the vital protein even if I’m breastfeeding ?
It’s in a clear bottle, any reason for that? It’s known to oxidise.
The clear bottle’s a representation of the value we place on transparency and, if stored as directed, should not compromise any of the ingredients. Oxidation shouldn't happen with these, so long as the vitamins are stored in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight :)
I thought collagen was prohibited in pregnancy. Is it safe??
My OBGYN, dermatologist , & lactation nurse says to avoid collagen during pregnancy and breastfeeding
As a nursing mother, can I take marine collagen?
We produce collagen ourselves by consuming vitamin C rich food. Just eat a lot of fruit, that's also great for you and your baby 💚 Collagen supplements are so unnecessary and not worth the money
She doesn’t answer anyone’s questions in the comment section .
Is collagen safe for nursing mom?
Did u figure out wether it’s safe please let me know too , I’m breastfeeding and I really want to start the collagen
How can i get the vitamin
Hey Bridget ,
I took a breastfeeding course and the midwife mentions that any kind of supplement can cause fussy, colicky babies because they change the taste of our milk. What do you think about this? I stopped taking postnatal vitamins because of it. My skin has been so dry though..
Which brand of postnatal vitamin were you taking ?
I started taking prenatals and they made my baby fussy. He doesn't sleep at night whenever I take the vitamins
@@fennyyahtaylor6772 I’m taking ritual postnatal vitamins. And I have no issue with it
Do you use vital collagen while pregnant too?
I do and I’m 5 1/2 months pregnant. Having been using it for years. People say I look 5-8 years younger than I am.
YES!
I just want to say that we produce collagen ourselves by consuming vitamin C rich food. Eat a lot of fruit. Collagen supplements are so unnecessary and not worth the money.
@@YassmineWantsPeace but you can only consume so much fruit a day due to sugar. Collagen supplements are great without the added sugar count
This is so helpful! I saw that the post natal vitamin is infused with mint which is known to deplete breast milk production. Is this safe for breastfeeding moms?
How quick do you switch from prenatal to postnatal? Does it affect the body once you do this?
So glad your ritual code still works! I'm also really looking forward to going back through your videos with this (my 2nd) pregnancy!
Through food is way better. I've heard a lot of bad things about prenatals depleting other nutrients. Vit d is a hormone not a vitamin so it can mess with hormones & lowers vit a which leads to low copper & not absorbing iron good
How can the vitamin be vegan if it has fish oil….
Am at the hospital hopefully about to go home in a few hrs with baby still in my belly, not car seat at 34 wks! I had taken vitamins and supplements the same ones I saw in your thumbnail and this answers a burning question I’ve had about I can restart my regimen. Thank you 🙏🏻
Hey did you take all of these together in a day or alternate days? And did you take them while breastfeeding?
It is safe to take collagen while breastfeeding? I am having doubts abot starting but in the same time i really need it. Thank you
Me too I really wanna start but not sure , did u take it ?
@@Bibi_slm Hey. I finished breastfeeding and then i started. I didn't want to make any major changes while breastfeeding.
Could you make a video on rib pain while pregnant, i put hot compress but i can't breathe deep n it last for many hours. I can't even lie down n it's scary

I love the self care point... So important 👍🏼😊
What vitamin d and probiotics do you give your babies? Thank you for your videos!
Breastmilk contains probiotics.
How would you GMO a mineral?

I heard ritual has such a high folate amount for nursing. Why!?
Can I take these supplements with legendary milk?

My baby is now 2 yrs old and still Bfeeding, what supplements should I be taking now aside from ferrous? Thank you!
contains only 10% of recommended choline needs
High dose calcium is really important especially if breastfeeding
Do you have any greens powders that you’d recommend during breastfeeding?
What alternatives to collagen can you give for vegans?
Hmm I need to look into ritual after my current one runs out.
I like Pure Synergy brand’s purenatal prenatal. Even non-pregnant people use it because it’s so great.
Let us know if you have any questions!
@@ritualvitamins will do. I haven’t looked into it much but I’ve heard it’s curated for your lifestyle

Oh you did
You can find us on ritual.com :)
Hi,I had joint pain n tiredness n lots of hair fall n no breast milk. Can u suggest me which vitamin s better?
My baby s 3month,pls suggest me. Thank you in advance.
That's literally what the video is. Her suggestions. Maybe watch the video...
Are these recommended even if you have a C section??
I’d like to know as well. I would think so though!

@@Elizabeth-sz5hl Correct! Essential Postnatal contains 3 additional nutrients (vitamin C, A, and zinc) to help support the postpartum life stage!
