So I haven't been taking any vitamins and I heard prenatals are good for hair and nails so after talking to my pharmacist I bought some!
AND they were on sale - America's Choice Brand from Waldbaum's - 2 bottles of 100ct vitamins for only $6.49! ( buy one get one free!)
I used to work there ( for six years!) so everyone I ran into kind of looked into my cart and I had to swear I am not pregnant! LOL I bet I started a rumor anyway. . .
So far, they absolutely STINK - they smell so bad and I felt like I smelled them for like an hour after I took it. . . and i THINK that they gave me some trouble sleeping last night because I took it before bed ( they have vitamin B6 i think - which gives you energy) so I am going to try to take them earlier!
hopefully they give me more energy ( when i need it lol) and help my hair and nails!!!!
oh yeah my mom freaked she thinks it is totally inappropriate that i bought them . . . seriously you would think that you get pregnant FROM taking the vitamins!

Re: prenatal vitamins.
Hmm they smell?? I am pregnant and taking prenatals and they don't have any odor or taste at all. I aslo bought them over the counter and the doctors approve of them I got mine from walmart they are in a pink bottle. Even the prenatals I took with my first I got from GNC and they were a little costly but they didn't smell either.

If the walmart is store brand, they might be the same exact thing. I believe the same company does private labeling for both.

That stinks that they smell (no pun intended)! My mom would think the same thing - she'd be like 'why are you taking prenatal vitamins!?'

i was thinking of going back but all the managers at my store ( howard beach) were new so i knew i wouldnt get special treatment LOL i worked customer service, cashier and front end before i left. . . and i was scared they would start me at minimum wage and just put me on the register all day!
if one of my old managers goes back i may start working there again, the 10% discount is going to be really helpful when i start grocery shopping lol

Re: prenatal vitamins.
are you taking omega 3 pills? it is great...it helps with brain development of the baby, and also reduces the percentage anything the baby can carry on from you that you wouldn't want it to, well i dont know if you have this situation but for anyone who does.

I take the CVS brand for well over a year and I haven't had any problems ... maybe you should give that brand a try!
