Should I still take my prenatal pills

[aliciaandtrue]

As You may or not be aware I lost my baby this week, I was wondering if I should still take my prenatal vitamins? I was not sure because I am so weak I didn’t know if it would help or not….any ideas ladies? Or has anyone had a miscarriage that can help me know what I can do to get my strength back?

The vitamins can only help...When I had my mc I kept taking my vitamins because I knew we were going to ttc again so it only made sense to keep myself healthy and to have the folic acid in my system pre pregnancy anyways.  Hope you are feeling back to yourself soon!  I know the two days after my mc I felt like someone beat me with a baseball bat!  I was sore everywhere (legs, back , arms!)

I am so sorry for your loss.  I miscarried in November.  You see other people go through it and think it is sad but you never realize how devastating it is until you go through it yourself.  I am very sorry.  I hope you feel better soon.
Definetly take your prenatal vitamins.  Especially if you are thinking of conceiving again.  My OB said women should be taking prenatal vitamins at least 3 months before they even try to conceive.  Preferably longer.

i'm really sorry this baby didn't make it. My dr said the other day in america they're putting miscarriage rates at close to fifty per cent. I would, as Kelly said, definitely take an additional iron pill. I wish you luck in the future.

I am so sorry for your loss, i had a missed m/c in june. After my m/c i took my vitamins faithfully. Then i decided end of october i was not going to take them so i didnt, so all i took was an iron pill and a folic acid pill. then i got preggo end of december.

I think its a personal decision, if you dont take them, i would recomend taking a folic acid pill though, being that is very important during the first 4 weeks of pregnancy.

I will keep you in my prayers, if you ever need to talk/vent you can always send me a message hugzzzz

Oh Hun.... I am so sorry for your loss..... I am sure there is nothing anyone can say that will make it a little easier to cope with but you are in my thoughts and prayers!

I would definitely keep taking the prenatal vitamins! I mean what could it hurt! There good for ya!

Yes I would definately still take the prenatals... If you are feeling weak I would also take an additional Iron pill...

Thanks...i am anemic as well have been my whole life so i am literely dragging myself

It won't hurt you to keep taking them.  After my m/c I felt weak also, and I kept taking mine to replenish what my body was losing.  I also ate foods with a lot of iron to make sure I didn't become anemic, that can make you feel tired as well.  If you plan on ttc again you should be taking them anyway.  Good luck, I am sorry for your loss and I wish you a quick recovery.
