I never took those particular prenatals, but they can indeed be what is making you sick..

Some suggestions..
*Never take the vitamins on an empty stomach... take them with food
* Maybe try taking them at night before bed.. that's what I have done and continue to do ..
* if nothing works, take a flinstone vitamin with a folic acid supplement. many people do this throughout their pregnancy..

I always took it with food, but being I am not eating that much right now, maybe it was still affecting me....

I like the idea of a flintstones vitamin - do you take a seperate folic acid supplement, or are there flintstones with folic acid in them?

Oh, I gotcha.. It's a double whammy when you can hardly eat and then you're trying to take a vitamin on top of it... those first weeks are the hardest Chat Icon

I honestly don't know about the flinstones ... I have a feeling (I could be wrong) they wouldn't have extra folic acid, since they designed for kids, but don't quote me. The folic acid supplement should not cause any nausea though.. I think in the prentals its mostly the iron and some other things that make you sicker than you already would be Chat Icon

I took Stuarts before getting PG with Caiden and I never had a problem. I would take them with food. Everybody is different to how their body reacts to things.

I took the Target brand (which is a generic of Stuarts, I think) and had no problems at all. I tried some of the samples the Dr gave me and it made me sick
