Do I need to take it?
any experienece?

Answer

I am taking a vegan supplement that has iron, b-12, folic acid, and vitamin c. I think those are like the four most important things for the baby, and its vegan so that’s a plus.

Answer

You should absolutely be taking B12, it is really dangerous. Supplementing from food won’t be enough. I have been vegan for almost 10 years and went to the doctor several years ago. He said while everything else was looking great, my B12 levels were dangerously low and if I didn’t take a supplement soon I would need a shot. So I’ve been taking them since then. I currently take the Garden of Life raw organic B12. Also I take the Garden of Life organic vegan prenatal gummies, and organic folate 800 mcg. I used to be uncomfortable taking them but realized it’s super important for yourself and your baby!

Answer

You need B12 for a healthy pregnancy.  Unless you’re consistently eating a LOT of nutritional yeast every day, supplementing is recommended.  It’s also water solvable so any excess is just peed out, but deficiencies can cause major issues.

Answer

Yes, you need to supplement b12. The only other place to get it is in meat, and even that’s not a reliable, consistent source. You build up stores of b12 but once you run out, you can suffer neurological damage. 
I like Deva’s sublingual b12.

Answer

Brewers yeast!!! Has all the great B vitamins! It was recommended by my nutritionist. If you dont like taking supplements this is great, it’s a powder like form kinda like nutritional yeast. tastes kinda cheesy and I like to add it to pasta, burritos, pizza anything where cheese would be great.
