I don't take any, but I want to go to see my doctor and ask what I should start taking... A friend of mine started taking vitamins on her own, and ended up getting sick because the dose was too strong for her. I would ask your doctor before you start taking anything...

I agree! My DH's chiropractor gave us this list

I take nothing... should prob start

Omega 3, which is also great to take for a while before you plan to get pregnant. It helps lower the risk of your baby getting certain things that might be part of your family history such as certain mental problems and other things. It lowers the chances by about 75%

I am also going to talk to my gyno next time i go about taking pre-natal vitamins. Many take it for a while before they get pregnant and want to know for how long before can you take it. It helps with brain development. The most crucial time for a baby is in the beginning and most women take vitamins after, when they find out and go for their first gyno appointment. But its best to take it from the start. So just in case

I take vitamin C but not as often

Everyday I take oxygenated magnesium its MAG O7

That's true it's good to start taking vitamines even before you start trying to get pregnant. My dr. told me that taking a multi vitamin is just fine. My friend and looked at the difference in ingredients between a multi and prenatal and the only difference is the Omega 3...so i take that one separately. But I hear from the TTC board that the target prenatals are good.
I take a daily multi, vitamin C, and Omega 3

I dont take any vitamins. I really should start. I want to start taking a multi vitamin in the least. It's just that they are HUGE

I just take prenatals.

Denise, you can start taking prenatals at anytime. They're def. good to have in your system at any time, they can only help and especially are good to have in your system if you're contemplating TTC anytime in the future. You can start by taking OTC prenatals, any kind are fine before you actually get pregnant. Once you do you might want to get prescription ones from your ob/gyn only because they have more folic acid than OTC ones.

I am also going to start my prenatals. . .you guessed it. . .November 1st!

Matilde, just ask your gyn for a prescription prenatal. They have the Omega 3, the DHA and the folic acid already in them, you can get a scrip even if you're not pregnant yet. This way you're only taking one pill, it's a big pill, but it has everything you need in it.

i dont p lan on TTC soon, but then again Dh and I arent planning for an exact time ya know. But JUST in case it does happen and it wasn't planned. I would be 100% happy with that so not like I would look at it as a mistake. So i wonder about that and thats why I was thinking of just starting now.

THank you so much for the info I am definitely going to ask my gyno next time I go in.

Not if I don't have to. I hate swallowing pills. I have to take other med's for the time being so that is enuf
I want to gag..

Sometimes I do take acidolphis though for the obvious prevention

Everyone has a preference on what to take. I love this MAG O7, it doesnt bother my stomach and works out perfectly for me. I know others who tried it and weren't crazy about it, but didnt effect me the same way.

If i take the pills the night before, when i wake up i go to the bathroom immediately. And then thats it, not like some other ones where youre going to the bathroom all day.
