Prenatals making me sick :(

I was never one to be able to take any kind of hard pill...
always had to be a gelcap...

Any suggestions as to what I can do? I got very sick this morning infront of co workers...

Take it at night, right before bed, with a small snack. They make me SO nauseous if I take them in the morning! Chat Icon

I was about to say the same.

Hope this helpsChat Icon

If not talk to you doc about a different prenatal sometimes it's a matter of finding the right one for you.

I agree that you should take it at night. If that doesn't work ask your OB about the chewable Flinstones vitamins.

They also have gelcap prenatals. Ask your OB. I think I had some called PreNexa.

Prenatals make me sick too...no matter what time of day I take them.

I bought the gummy kids vitamins and extra folic acid supplement and they still bother my stomach. So I take them when I can.

Re: Prenatals making me sick :(

I learned the hard way that you should never take ANY vitamin (Prenatal or not) on an empty stomach.
Especially if it has zinc.
Zinc will make you puke .

I take all my vitamins with dinner...

Re: Prenatals making me sick :(

I couldn't take them either... I take the chewable flintstones... Doctor says they are perfectly fine. The only other supplements I may need is Iron only because I am slightly anemic.
