prenatal vitamins 11 weeks 2 days

I'm taking the prescription vitafol-ob+dha which is $55 and I was taking bellybar before and during the earlier part of pregnancy which has almost 2x the amount of vitamins but no dha for $13 is it safe to switch back? Is there something else that I am overlooking?

I know alot of women including myself who take the Womens One A Day Prenatal Vitamins that r otc. Its 2 pills but not half as expensive. One pill is all ur folic acid n  other nutrients and the other contains the DHA u need.

I've seen some otc that already have dha. But definitely confirm with your Ob.

You can get a separate dha to go along with anything you decided to take. The only thing I will say is to ask your dr. It's easy to overdose on certain vitamins and that may be why they switched you.
