vitamin?

When is the best time to take prenatal vitamin without them upsetting my stomach. My doc wants me to take them due to low iron.

I take then right before bed.  All vitamins make me sick they always have so this is what the pharmacist suggested.

I always get sick if I take it in the morning, even after eating breakfast.  I eat dinner really late...I know, bad.  But, I take my vitamin just after dinner, before bed.

Take it at night before you go to sleep.  That should help.

I always take mine in the morning. It used to make me stomach upset, but my doctor told me to drink it with a big glass of ice water and it helped.
