Consult a physician before use if pregnant, nursing, taking medication, or managing a medical condition.

Inside the Bottle

Brain-supporting role: Framed as gut-brain support — nurturing the gut ("your second brain") for mother and baby through early motherhood.

Your Gut Creates 95% of Your Body's Serotonin

Pregnancy reshapes the gut considerably, and the gut and the brain stay in constant communication throughout. Digestion is one of the first things to change and one of the last to settle, and it affects how well everything else you're taking gets where it's going.

Supports digestive comfort and regularity

Two of the most common complaints in pregnancy, addressed directly.

For calmer digestion and clearer thinking

Formulated to support the gut-brain axis, mood, cognition and digestive wellness through prenatal, pregnancy and nursing stages.

A Prenatal that thinks ahead

Dr. Brain Mom's Parent Tip

Take your probiotics first thing in the morning, 20–30 minutes before breakfast. The extended-release capsule is designed to protect beneficial bacteria through stomach acid so they arrive where they're needed. Taking it at the same time each day helps make it a habit that sticks.
