Prenatal Vitamin Question

Hi ladies! Today I went to the Dr. and got my prenatal vitamins and am all set to go off BC at the end of this month! I was an avid LIW poster, but am in hiding! Sorry!

I had a question about when to start the vitamins. Should I take them now or wait until I'm off BC?

Thanks girls! Wishing you all Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

Re: Prenatal Vitamin Question

My doctor had me take them for three months before I went off the pill, so I think you could start now.

Every dr. is different. Mine told me to start them when I stopped the pill...up until that point he said to make sure I was taking a regular multivitamin every day.

Good luck!! Chat Icon

You should definitely start now. Most doctors will recommend that you take 800 mcgs of Folic Acid 2-3 months before starting TTC. You can take just the supplement of Folic Acid, or take the prenatals which have it already.

Lots of Chat Icon Chat Icon to you!

Re: Prenatal Vitamin Question

I'd check with your Dr. and see what he or she recommends.


Most Dr.'s encourage folks to take a multi vitamin regardless of TTC. Best of luck to you!
