Annoying prenatal Vitamins
- Im at 15 weeks, I noticed that when I drink my prenatals I start feeling real tired and dizzy and when I dont drink them I feel energetic. So what I do is I drink them every other day. I make sure I have ate already because with an empty stomach makes me throw up all day no matter what I eat. I have lost weight due to all the throwing up. Tho drinking them every other day is better than not drinking them at all. Im not able to drink with anything but cranberry juice it really helps me.

9&1/2 weeks preggo; Prenatal Tips ;;
- 1- Try to chop them up as small as in 6th's and take them periodically throughout the day with a bite of something. 2- Or take them at night AFTER a solid meal, in half. 3-Take them WITH a mouthfull of water, and follow up with a bite of something to keep it down, regaurdless of if you kept it whole or chopped it up. Plus I find staying hydrated keeps me glowing (: GOOD LUCK MOMMIES (: ❤

Take half..
- If I take a whole prenatal vitamin my whole day is shot. If I take half and then a flinstone childrens vitamin in the evening I feel like a million dollars. No sickness at all.

So weak!
- I couldn't stand more than 1-2 minutes and was tired all the time when taking prenatal vitamins. I had to have them without iron with my son six years ago but never experienced this. I had to switch to every 2-3 days as I was already taking them early evening.

Ughhhhhhh
- I am 8 weeks pregnant and I started to have upset stomach since week 5 and threw up many times a day, so I stopped my prenatal vitamins for two days and I felt much much much better like magic. I will never take them anymore, I will try something else!!!!

Large pills?
- I am 11 weeks and I only took two prenatal pills because I could not stand that fact that they are huge. So I take now prenatal vitamin gummys and they work great for me.

CVS Brand
- I have tried several prenatals (pre pregnancy) and the majority of them made me very sick. I purchased the CVS brand (in the yellow box) when they were BOGO one week and they were awesome! I did not get nauseated at all with them. I know everyone is different, but they are worth a try if you are having nausea with others.

Plant-based DHA
- I had a lot of trouble taking my pre-natal vitamins in the first pregnancy. They gave me heavy gas and just couldn't keep them in my stomach, used to throw-up 9 out of 10 times. Then I shifted to an all natural plant-based DHA prenatal vitamins. They have been just great. They are very expensive compared to the pre-natal vitamins my doctor suggested and don't have generic substitute. But they have been great to my stomach and I think it is worth a hundred times more, because there are no more throw-ups, no more irritating burps and I can still do what is the best for my little one. Hope this helps someone.

prenatal vitamins !
- I'm going to try the flinstones vutamins as every brand of prenatal vitmain I have tried has me vomiting fifteen min after consumption. I'm 8 weeks and I throw up 7-8 times a day. I hope this ends.

Flinstones
- I never suffered with morning sickness but every time I took my prenatal pills I would get very ill. My doctor told me to take one Flinstones chewable at lunch with some orange juice and then one before bed. Taking anything in the morning ruins my entire day so this way me and my baby both get what we need and feel great! 23 weeks now!
