Flintstone chewables and a folic acid chaser that is a VERY tiny pill Chat Icon

My OB said that was as good as any prenatal so I took that throughout pregnancy and still do now. Chat Icon



I thought some girls were taking the flinstone.. so you take that once a day plus folic acid?
the ones that are strictly folic acid?

dont mind the dumb questionsChat Icon Chat Icon



Yup - Flintstone once a day and then I think its 400 mcg of straight, plain Folic Aid that I bought at Target.

I bought the Target ones based on a recommendation but they were too large for me.

My doctor (I am now PG) said to take Flintstone gummy chewables (adults take 2/day) and a small folic acid pill, 800 mcg a day. the folic acid pill is very small. she prescribed a chewable kind, but said the Flintstones combined with the folic acid is just as good, so I am sticking with that since it doesnt bother my stomach.
