vitamins

Every time I take my prenatal pill I get sick immediately and yes I eat. I'm worried my baby isn't getting everything it needs and I don't have a doctors appointment til October 12 so I'm unsure what to do any suggestions?

The same thing was happening to me, hell I felt like I was knocking on deaths door I was so sick but I started taking mine at night and by that I mean as close to midnight as possible. I haven't been sick in a good while except for two Saturdays ago when I took that sucker at 9ish and trust me my son reminded me-"mommy I do not like those things this early" lol. I was upset to because I had been craving my favorite Aunts gumbo which I she mad the biggest pot that I have ever seen for me, and I had a scheduled test which required fasting after midnight and I was sick right  up until time so I couldn't replenish what I lost..msl dang folic acid. Which is usually the cause for sickness because the prescribed ones contain more than the otc ones. Try my close to midnight method and let me know how it works fire you:)

I'm taking the gummies and am doing great with them. With my previous pregnancies I had to stop taking them, but my Dr told me what foods to eat and put me on iron supplements and that was it.

My doc gave me prescription ones and i would take them at night after food and before bed and i would wake up sick so i stoped and i was fine so i knew it was the pills so i bought over the counter and are taking them now and im not sick anymore! I think u should just try over the counter mayb the ones ur taking are too strong for u . If not deff go with gummys
