like mamaofonetrying42 said, I think you should consult your doc. 1st.  I also do not know what shaklee vitamins are.  If anything, make sure it has folic acid in it...that's the most important aspect of prenatals....but still ask your doc.

What you can do is compare the label on a bottle of prenatal vitamins with your Shaklee and see if everything is the same. I saw on their site that you can get some with iron (which is important) and you need folic acid to prevent birth defects, etc. Also, let your doctor know you take Shaklee. I don't think it'd be a problem because they're vitamins and not intense medication. Just give the office a call Monday and tell them you use those vitamins and you're pregnant. They'll be glad to help you!

I used ******* products all through my pregnancy and had a wonderful experience carrying a baby! I know my doctor had no problem with it! I wouldn't use anything else! Any other questions I would be glad to help!
