[MommyyCindyy]

I was wondering if any of you moms or ftm didnttake prenatal vitamins at all? i know u need them but i never took mine i tried when i was 7 weeks and they made me really sick so i stopped im 30 weeks and Dr said my baby is growing how she should and everything looks good.... Has any other mo not taken them or doesnt take them?

I don't take them. They make me sick! I'm 22 weeks and 6 days, my baby is growing just fine!

Almost 23 weeks here and never never one single prenatal. I did take folic acid. My baby girl is just fine, and I've never felt better (healthier) in my life than how I do now. Just remember if you choose not to take them, commit yourself to a healthy well balanced diet and you and baby will be fine :)

I used to take materna prenatal and they made me feel sick even when I wasn't pregnant so I switched to Jamieson prenatal because on the package it says easier on the tummy and they work really well.  :)

I'm 29 weeks and haven't took them. I tried when I first found out I was pregnant.  But they made my nausea worse so I stopped.

My OB told me that all I actually need is iron.

I was getting sick off my vitamins to at first and they were a tablet form pill.  I switched brands and got them in a capsule amd now have no problems. I think its better to take the vitamins if u can find some that dont make u sick because whatever vitamins you dont give to baby the vitamins supplement for them. Also some have dha which is great for brain development etc.. to each their own though.

All you need is a daily vitamin. I did not with my first couple pregnancys and my kids had slight signs of lack of vitamins by the age of two......dark circles etc but because they are healthy otherwise the drs don't really seem to notice. The kids I took vitamins with look very healthy and have no signs that they are missing any vitamins. I also .gi've my kids i vitamins infant drops and chewables once they can eat them.

I take Flintstones vitamins bc the other ones make me sick.  And taking them isn't so much for the baby as they are for you since the baby takes all of your nutrients.

I experienced the same thing with my first pregnancy. My Dr. actually told me to stop taking them, and I had a healthy baby boy.
