Premama Prenatal Vitamin Drink Review & Giveaway
Vitamins of any type make me gag. That smell when you open the bottle. The ginormous horse-pill size. The "vitamin burps" afterwards. Add all those things into an already super sensitive pregnant nose and occasional morning sickness (yes, still, even though I'm almost full term) and I'll readily admit, taking a prenatal vitamin while pregnant leaves me groaning.
In fact, most of the first trimester and well into the second trimester, I can't keep a prenatal down or by the time I remember to take them, it's the end of the day and I just can't muster up the courage for the battle that will ensue.
When I heard of Premama Prenatal Vitamin Drink, my interest was piqued. A vitamin drink, specifically designed for woman who are either trying to conceive, are pregnant or are breastfeeding? I signed up for some samples, but I was skeptical.
My thoughts on Premama Prenatal Vitamin Drink:
I received my samples, and mixed the appropriate amount of juice immediately. Premama can be mixed in any cold drink, even water, since it's flavorless. I didn't taste anything different in my juice. There wasn't any grit, but the end of the glass was left with a little residue. I don't really drink juice, so I tried it with the ultimate: water! It looked a little different, and I could taste a little bit of the vitamin-y taste, so I quickly added some lemonade mix and remedied it.

Nutritionally, this product stacks up pretty evenly with the ingredient list for your average prenatal vitamin, except Premama has DHA in it, which many vitamins don't. The prenatal I currently take is loaded with even more, but like I said, with the average prenatal vitamin you would buy at Target, this matches up pretty well. And really, how would you get spirulina to taste good in a drink?
I love how innovative this product is. I haven't heard of a prenatal vitamin that you mix into a drink. I could easily see this product being very convenient for a working mama on the go or a stay at home mama with lots going on!
As far as time and preparation for this product, it breaks even with a conventional prenatal vitamin in pill form. With a regular prenatal, you still have to get a drink out, then gag it all down. With Premama, you need to get a drink, mix in the Premama (which doesn't take long) and drink, not gag, it down.
Final thoughts:
I would've absolutely adored this product in the early days of my pregnancy, when it's nearly impossible for me to get a prenatal vitamin down! I have felt guilt, that I'm not getting additional vitamins at times when my body is rejecting the many nutritional foods I would normally eat. Premama Prenatal Vitamin Drink could be an answer for me! I would buy this product in the early days, then switch to a more complete vitamin later in pregnancy. You can buy a 30-day supply (or more) of Premama conveniently online.
