Prenatal vitamins

How many are taking it? For those of you who are, have you been feeling sick, nauseous, weird stomach feeling?

I had that with the first type I tried and had to switch. Also try to take it at night before bed so most of the s/e are at night while sleeping. They have a lot of iron in them which can cause stomach issues. Also I was told milk is a no no when you take the vitamin it interferes with the absorption. Stick to taking it with water. Good luck

im taking them but im not pregnant yet
my dr. recommends 'rainbow light' from GNC or drugstore.com
they are not prescription so they are a little more expensive since u cant use an insurance card but she highly recommends them

Can you take prenatal vitamins before you are pregnant?

Yes you can. I was taking both prenatals and birth control for two months before I got off of BC.

Re: Prenatal vitamins

my doctor said I can start taking them a year before we try to concieve. It's good to start taking them before because there are lots of folic acid and other good stuff in them. I mentioned to FH to start taking them soon.

my doctor said to take them 1-3 months before we start trying to TTC... I have not had much of the side effects like nausousness but I have been having regular bowel movements (I am sorry if it is tooo TMI ~ but I never went as much as i go now)
