Prenatal Vitamins?

Hey ladies just a small question! So the prenatal vitamins I am currently taken prescribed by my doctor are absolutely awful! I cannot take them without gaging and throwing up. I feel sick about an hour later and it lasts throughout the whole day. I've been doing research about different vitamins I could take and I found the most best one seems to be belly bar which is a chewable prenatal vitamin. But I was wondering if anyone takes other vitamins that isn't a huge horse pill?

I take one a day women's prenatals, took them last time and now this time with no problems. If you take the gimmie make sure they have iron and DHA in them

I switched to a liquid capsile with DHA/omegas. Still a huge pill, got them from a health food/supplemental store, but I'm not throwing them up. Lady at the store said the liquid is easier on your stomach than the chalky ones. I'm in Canada, have never seen the gummies. :(

Yeah same with me, I can't take the prenatal pills without throwing up either. I just stopped taking them. Just make sure you eat and snack throughout the day. Nutritious wise for yourself and the baby of course.
