Gummy Pre Natal Vitamins?

Does anyone know if there's such a thing as pre natal vitamins in gummy form?? I know it sounds silly, but I have a hard time swallowing pills. And some of the prenatals my doctor gave me as samples are huge horse pills lol. I've been taking them but also having issues with nausea, so I thought this might be a good compromise.

Thanks so much ladies, this is great! Also thanks for the tip on the iron, maybe I'll pair the gummies with iron supplements. Can't wait to stop having to choke down these pills! :)

I take the gummy prenatal vitamins because they don't have iron. I'm not anemic and I had severe constipation so my midwife recommended them. They are great! And pretty tasty too lol

Agreed vitafusion are good but no iron. I've never been told i have an iron problem though i think because i get enough through what i eat.

Most prenatal gummis will not contain iron because they appeal to children. Its a precaution to prevent overdose should a child decide to take a bunch of gummis... I take the Wegman's brand prenatal gummis and they taste awesome. Vita Fusion also makes some that are pretty good. You can always take an additional iron supplement if you need to. I don't because I eat a lot of iron rich foods and my levels have been fine so far

They have them but PLEASE make sure they have iron in them. I had to get on iron because I didn't realize that the ones I bought from whole foods didn't contain iron so my iron levels dropped really really low.

Yes they make them. Any drug store or Walmart,  etc.  Beware though, they do not contain iron.  I switched to the gummies early on and my iron levels dropped very low.

That's great! I feel like such a sissy to ask someone at the drug store but oh well lol. Does anyone recommend a brand? I'm in the US.

Yes but don't get the generic brand  I thought they tasted just as bad as the pills I too get nauseous when taking pills

Yes they make them, they just don't have iron in them. at least none that I have found do. I've found taking my prenatals right before I go to bed helps a great deal with the upset stomach.
