I just found out I am pregnant with my first little love a week ago. My docs appointment is in 2 weeks. I have already started taking vitamins but I was wondering, what time of the day should you take them. The bottle says once per day after a meal. Is it more effective of you take them at a certain time of day? I want my button as healthy as can be!

Take them after your main meal on a full stomach the reasons to do so are not to make you feel sick and also it helps the  baby absorb the vitamins properly. I was taking original pregcare up untill 18weeks then i swapped to pregcare max which has three tablets one of which is omega 3....which is good if you dont like or have enough fish baby needs this. Id strongly advise these tablets. Fabulous for you and baby.

If it is recommended once a day, it could be taken any time. But I just feel that post breakfast is the best time for any type of medicine as we eat sumptuous breakfast as lunch and dinner and mid meals tend to get lighter by the time

I take them with my noon lunch because thats the only time of day which I feel not sick. But if I forget to take it at noon i take it in the evening or at around 4pm
