1st Trimester Essentials

We use Methylfolate, the active form of folic acid, which is clinically proven to increase serum folate levels.

Since folate is crucial for early pregnancy, it was important to our medical panel to include the most bioavailable form of folate possible—in the form of Methylfolate in our prenatal vitamin formulas. "Folic acid is less expensive, [which] leads to the terms folate and folic acid being interchangeable," says Dr. Amber Samuel, a maternal-fetal medicine doctor and Perelel Panel member. "We know that while everyone has to convert folic acid for it to be useful, [it's] an added step, decreasing bioavailability. And some women cannot due to MTHFR mutations."

We recommend starting with our Conception Prenatal Support Pack*, which was specifically formulated by fertility doctors and OB/GYNs to prepare your body for pregnancy. It contains our Core Prenatal, so that your baseline nutritional needs are covered when you get pregnant—before you even know it! Once you have a positive pregnancy test, you can reach out to us or update your subscription directly in your account portal to the 1st Trimester Prenatal Pack!

Each monthly Pack contains 30 daily sachets (with 4 pills each) to cover all your needs during the 1st trimester.

Our doctors formulated our Conception Prenatal Support Pack* to support your needs for early pregnancy, including a Core Prenatal and additional folate, so you're good to continue taking your Conception Prenatal Support until your 1st Trimester Prenatal Pack arrives!

While the timing of when you start your vitamins with us doesn't always exactly align with your trimester, rest assured all of our packs will keep your needs covered during any overlap weeks! Feel free to finish out your current pack before switching to your new one.

Perelel is the first and only prenatal vitamin brand co-founded by an OB/GYN. For each of our formulations, our medical co-Founder, Dr. Bayati, partners with a panel of leading doctors and women's health experts—drawing on both the latest scientific research and their own clinical insights to help select high-quality ingredients in their most bioavailable forms, in clinically-tested doses.

Our bodies and baby's needs change so much during pregnancy. Unlike most one-size-fits-all prenatal vitamins, our Trimester Packs were specifically designed to change with you—delivering targeted nutrition and symptoms relief when you need it most.

Our products run on a monthly subscription to make sure you never run out of your vitamins. Your subscription will automatically update alongside your due date so you receive the right pack for your trimester and into postpartum.

We account for shipping time and will automatically move you into the next trimester pack as you start to approach it. You will receive an email 5 days prior to any shipment just in case you need to make any adjustments (such as changing packs or moving back a shipment).

We follow the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists™ (ACOG) defined trimesters:

• 1st Trimester: Week 0 through Week 13
• 2nd Trimester: Week 14 through Week 27
• 3rd Trimester: Week 28 through Week 40+

Always feel free to contact us at [email protected] if you have any specific questions or want to make any changes.
