One (Tired) Mom's Honest Review: Perelel's Mom Multi-Vitamin

It's no surprise there's a relationship between postnatal depletion and mental health concerns, as moms are more exhausted and nutritionally deficient than ever.

As I’ve been on my postpartum recovery journey from my youngest (who just turned two), I’ve never found a daily multivitamin that had everything I needed to feel both energetic yet calm, give my graying, shedding hair a boost, and also a dose of Omega DHA and EPAs (my naturopath says I need more of this).

I was thrilled when Perelel, the first and only OB/GYN-founded women’s prenatal vitamin brand, asked me to try their postnatal multivitamin, the Mom Multi Support Pack. It checked all my boxes (mood and energy support, gluten-free, third-party tested, and no synthetic fillers), and it’s become a part of my daily self-care routine (which, let’s be honest, isn’t as robust as I’d like it to be).

Let’s explore what I loved about it and why supplementation is essential after birth.

As a certified holistic health coach, I know that nutrition plays a vital role in recovering from an event like birth and our overall mental and physical health.

As a busy mom, getting the nutrients I need isn’t always possible, especially when feeding, changing, and putting a baby or small child to sleep around the clock. Maybe you can relate?

I knew that I needed a daily multivitamin* that could keep up with the demands of motherhood and support my (overly taxed) nervous system in the process.

*The Food and Drug Administration has not evaluated these statements. This product is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease.

Plus, as a company, their standards are excellent, too.

As a new mom, I know how important it is to care for myself—not only so I can take care of my kids but also because I deserve to feel good about myself.

Incorporating Perelel's Mom Multi Support into my morning routine (paired with a protein-rich breakfast and a homemade Matcha latte) has helped me remember that my needs matter, too. Every self-care habit—big or small—can stack upon another and have a greater impact on my health and well-being.

Also, it’s worth mentioning how insanely convenient the individual packs are. They’re cute, too! 

If I know I’m running out the door early in the morning, I throw a pack in my bag to take them anytime. As any new mom knows, convenience is key, especially in the early postpartum days (as those babies turn into even older kids, too). 

I’ve noticed a few subtle (but impactful) changes as I’ve consistently taken the Mom Multi from Perelel. Firstly, I’ve noticed that my energy is more consistent throughout the day. The combination of B and D vitamins gives me the boost I need.

Also, my emotions feel more balanced and easier to manage. I feel less “rage-y,” especially when I’m exhausted (one of my biggest triggers to overwhelm), and thanks to the stress support blend, I feel less flustered overall.

And it’s not just me. Perelel conducted an 8-week independent study with their Mom Multi Support Pack, and 70% of participants had more energy and overall mood improvements; 77% had shinier hair; 73% had brighter, more radiant skin and improved skin health*.

*Based on an 8-week independent study of 30 women, ages 25+, with at least one child under the age of 5 years old.

Whether you’re newly postpartum (yes, they’re safe for breastfeeding!) or two years postpartum like myself, you can benefit from taking a multivitamin formulated especially for moms like the Mom Multi by Perelel. Of course, as with starting any new supplement, it’s best to speak directly to your healthcare provider (especially if you’re breastfeeding).

If you’re postpartum, taking a post-natal is essential. And yes, a pre-natal and a post-natal are typically different formulations, so make sure you’re taking something that will support the stage of motherhood that you’re currently in (like the Mom Multi). 

I quickly learned in early postpartum that caring for my needs felt paralyzing at times, and I found myself depleted, exhausted, and overwhelmed. 

I know how critical supplementation can be, and I so wish I had a vitamin like Perelel for my recovery journey after birth. 

That’s a great question! This vitamin is formulated to be taken for the first five years of motherhood (you know, to help you navigate the sleepless nights, toddler tantrums, and everything else that comes with the territory). 

Plus, Perelel’s founding doctors consider postpartum to be up to five years after birth, which is significantly longer than the arbitrary “six-week” standard new moms can hold themselves to. 

Ordering is easy! Head to Perelel’s website, select the Mom Multi Support Pack, and choose whether you’d like a one-time purchase or a subscription. 

Hint: the subscription option saves almost $10/month.
