What brand of prenatals do you use?

I'm on the GNC brand right now and thinking about making a switch. I want to make sure I'm taking the best possible prenatal vitamin while ttc. So the question is what type worked for you??

Thanks

I actually tried a few different brands and didn't find one any better then the other.  Just make sure it has a high level of folic acid (I believe it's 1000??  can't remember, but please someone correct me if I am wrong).  Other then that I believe they are all about the same.  One thing my OB did tell me...as a women in her 40's (not sure your age), I also took calcium supplements.  Fish oil was another supplement I took, although not because of my age.  Good luck to you.

i take the target brand.  Inexpensive, has everything you need and nothing you don't need.
I also take a DHA supplement.

Thanks, I take the fish oil as part of my regular vitamin routine as well. I don't know on the folic acid.
