Just FYI, I had hyperemsis. I never took even my prenatal. I have the first box from 2+ years ago b/c I couldn't keep them down.
My OB told me that the prenatal is for YOU and that the baby gets everything from you and the vitamin replenishes your nutirients. So you are not hurting your baby.
same here. i couldn't keep down a single prenatal vitamin during my first pregnancy. my baby did great. so i really wouldn't worry about it- your baby is getting what it needs from your body
ETA: don't forget that just a few years ago DHA supplements didn't even exist... and some years before that women didn't even take prenatals (i don't think my mother took them 33 years ago). and babies have been born and have done great anyway.

I don't even know what DHA is so I guess I am not taking it. I couldn't even take prenatal vitamins due to my morning sickness so I took gummy bear children vitamins in the beginning. I haven't been taking any vitamins at all since the 3rd trimester.
