Magnesium is generally considered safe for nursing mothers and even recommended in many circumstances, as it is an essential ion for the human body, playing an instrumental role in supporting and sustaining health and life.
Because Magnesium is also depleted by everyday stress (hello, newborn phase!), Kelly supplements daily in her own life, through all of the life phrases (pregnancy, postpartum etc)., in addition to her use of LMNT packets and WeNatal Prenatal vitamins.
Given that Magnesium is also known to support your circadian rhythm and prep your body for a restful night of sleep, Kelly prefers to take Magnesium at night (and that is our suggestion for incorporating the supplement into your own routine).
All of this being said, the most important takeaway if pregnant or breastfeeding is to consult with your doctor directly to determine what works best for you.
