Not sure if you have these where you are but I get the "Jamieson Natural Sources Prenatal" in the vitamin section of shoppers, they are also supposed to be easier on your tummy (they contain natural peppermint). I take them after supper and have NEVER gotten so much as a tummy ache from them

I've heard that you can take the flinstones vitamins, the yummy ones, because they contain what we need. Just get your doc to ok it :)

The only thing about gummies is that if you choose them, you will need to take an additional iron supplement or make sure that you have enough iron in your diet as prenatal gummies don't contain iron.
