I am no longer pregnant, but I am nursing and it was recommended to me by my OB that I continue to take prenatal vitamins while doing so.  I have had some issues on and off since pregnancy with yeast infections, so I thought the probiotics would also be a good idea.<br /><br />I have taken some other brands of probiotics that just really tore up my stomach for days.  I'm glad to say this one, so far, hasn't been too harsh.  It is a bit annoying having to take this supplement in two pills, but if that is the way I have to do it then it is convenient to only have to buy one item instead of two.<br /><br />I was hoping by continuing to take prenatals, that the typical postpartum hair loss wouldn't occur, but that has not been the case unfortunately.  I can't say anything negative about the vitamin part of this package, it's perfect as far as a vitamin goes.  It isn't too hard to swallow although it is on the larger side, typical of a prenatal vitamin pill.  I also didn't get any foul aftertaste.<br /><br />The biggest issue I had with this product is the packaging.  I found the packs pretty hard to separate even though there were perforated lines.  I ended up having to cut them apart and then stick a pen or knife tip into the pill section to get them out.  Pretty bad if you accidentally puncture the probiotic capsule, so watch out for that.<br /><br />I received this product at a discount in exchange for my unbiased review.  My opinions are my own and were not influenced by this fact.
