3rd Trimester Regimen

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."

Yes, we complete third-party testing on all of our products to confirm purity and potency. All of our vitamins are made in FDA Registered and Inspected Facilities, which meet FDA 21 CFR 111 guidelines and are also cGMP Certified. All raw materials for our vitamins are tested directly prior to production to ensure their purity and quality. COAs are performed on every batch of manufactured vitamins to ensure final product integrity and quality, which includes testing for heavy metals, microbes, allergens and contaminates. We then complete third-party testing for heavy metals, microbes and potency to confirm our products are safe under USP standards.  In addition, our pre and postnatal formulas have earned us certification from the Clean Label Project, a leading nonprofit that sets one of the industry's highest standards for consumer transparency. We’re proud to have earned Clean Label Project’s highest honor, the Purity Award!

We chose to source omegas from fish because they are heavily research backed. To help reduce heavy metals in the final oil, we are also sourcing from smaller wild caught fish like anchovies and sardines.

Your nutritional needs change after giving birth, so we recommend switching to our Mom Multi Support Pack, which contains a Core Postnatal vitamin to aid in a healthy postpartum period and beyond.* (If you tell us your due date when you subscribe, we'll automatically switch your subscription for you—one less thing to think about!)

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.

Each monthly Pack contains 30 daily sachets (with 5 pills each) to cover all your needs during the 3rd trimester.

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+

The doctors behind our formula very intentionally chose magnesium over melatonin for a couple of reasons: For one, melatonin is not pregnancy- or breastfeeding-safe, and it was important to us to provide support for moms and moms-to-be who need it most. For another, since melatonin is the hormone our brain produces to induce sleepiness, taking more melatonin can directly impact our sleep-wake cycle—which can lead to grogginess and other undesirable side effects. Instead, studies suggest that magnesium acts as a precursor for our natural melatonin production, relaxing the body and setting the stage for better sleep. And our formula is safe for pregnancy and breastfeeding, too.

Most women don’t get enough choline from diet alone and it is essential for brain, liver, and cellular function and health. The recommended amount of choline for pregnant women is 450 mg and breastfeeding is 550 mg per day. Our daily packs provide enough choline to meet that requirement alongside a healthy diet, but some women may need or want an additional boost or to help close the gap. All women can benefit from meeting the daily recommended intake of choline to support cognition and cellular health at every stage of life (especially perimenopause and beyond when decreased estrogen levels mean that the body is less efficient at naturally producing acetylcholine, which choline is needed for and can contribute to brain fog).

Yes! Choline is an essential nutrient that is required for neurotransmitter synthesis, contributes to cell membrane structure, is involved in methylation functions, and supportive of liver health. It is beneficial to all women, especially as most don’t get enough choline from their diet.
