Pre natal vitamans
Ok so what prenatals are you girls taking. My Doctor gave me a couple of different samples and so far they have all made me so sick (nausea felling). I was taking One a day women's and i was feeling fine on those, would it be bad if i didn't take a pre natal and just kept taking the one a day women's??

Definitely try taking them at night. I take Citranatal with DHA and I take them at night. I started taking them at night during my first trimester when I felt nauseous all day, but still take them at night now.

Im on Nutrispire. I never got sick. The only issue is that you get bad breath when you burp. It is tolerable!

I take these: ONE A DAY Womens Prenatal Complete Prenatal Multivitamin Plus DHA,Tablets & Liqui-Gels. I am very happy with them and get them at Walgreens because that is the place I found them the cheapest.

Re: Pre natal vitamans
I take Prenate. My OB wanted me to take something with DHA in it. I have to take it on an empty stomach so I don't think this is an option for you.

I just got these for my son and decided to try them and they actually taste good! I am so excited because I havent been able to take any vitamins until now, I only take extra folic acid...

Re: Pre natal vitamans
I've had the same problem as the OP - every prescription prenatal made me sick (and I do take them at night)
I reverted back to my Spring Valley ones from Walmart but I don't think that have DHA in them...
AM I DOING HARM TO MY BABY????

I take these as well. I tried a million different Rx samples, wound up forgetting which ones sat well with me and decided I probably couldn't trust myself to fill/refill a Rx, anyway.

Re: Pre natal vitamans
I take Prenate DHA, they have a vanilla scent and taste. Does not make me sick...but I also take them at night. I think taking them at night is key.

Initially I was taking Flinstone's Complete but at my last appointment (16 weeks) my doc said I should really start taking real prenatals. She prescribed me a different chewable which was just nasty. So I bought this One A Day and I haven't felt sick at all. They give you two different pills in this package and although the size might scare you, they actually are really easy to go down.

Re: Pre natal vitamans
I used to take ones without DHA... but my OB highly recommended DHA.
I got nausea, constipation, you name it with the meds.
Three things make it better: 1. Time. Yes, your body gets used to it. 2. Night time dosing (I take one WITH dinner). 3. Gel caps: I use the NatureMade brand from Whole foods. It's my favorite so far & goes down easy.

Definitely try taking them at night. I take Citranatal with DHA and I take them at night.
Ditto - I'm on the same ones and I take them at night too. I usually take all my vitamins at night because I just tolerate them better.

Re: Pre natal vitamans
I didn't take the ones my Dr. gave me because they weren't covered by my insurance. Instead I take the Target brand Pre-natlas and an extra supplement of Folic Acid to get to the dosae in the one's given by the Dr.

Re: Pre natal vitamans
Have you tried taking them with food?
I'm taking OB Complete 400- the only drawback is the fish burbs you get afterwards. NASTY!
If I take it with plenty of food though it keeps the burps at bay!

Re: Pre natal vitamans
I take Prefera with DHA.
I leave them in my nightstand & take them when I get into bed. I've never gotten sick from them & I have a weak stomach.

Re: Pre natal vitamans
My OB prescribed Neevo.....no nausea at all!!! As a matter of fact you're supposed to take it on an empty stomach and still it doesn't make me sick I highly recommend it.
