What vitamins are needed for a nursing mother?

[abemom2]

Pre-natals and Multi don't work for me. I need to take separate vitamins. Which are the ones I need?

Calcium, Magnesium, B6, B12. What else?


Thanks so much, Ana

How's your diet? I would say while nursing you needs LOTS of good fat. Ghee, greass-fed butter, raw milk, grass-fed meats,coconut oil, avocado etc of course assuming you eat all this

IMO the most important supps would be fermented cod liver oil, vit D3 and a probiotic. Mag is good too Do you have reason to believe your B's are low? Same thing for calcium?
