Re: Poll: What brand PNV?

  • Kroger brand from Fred Meyer. I was taking an extra folic acid but then I found out that the RX PNV's only have 1000mg and mine had 800, so I didn't want to over do it.

  • First pregnancy - just regular drugstore brand (Duane Reade) - OB at the time said this was fine.  This time (different OB), Prenate DHA taken with dinner.

  • Target brand at night.  The prescription ones made me sick last time so I will not be taking those again.  (Plus I had to pay full cost on them - like $23 for 30 and the Target are $7 for literally hundreds.)

  • Prenate Elite DHA.  My doctor wants me to have 1000 mcg of folic acid, and only prescription ones have that much.  Before I got pregnant I was taking Target brand prenatals, along with an extra 400 mcg pill of folic acid.  Then when I got pregnant I started also taking DHA (Expecta).  I was glad to switch from 3 pills to 1!

  • I've been taking Target brand but when I told my doc I was trying to TTC, he prescribed PreCare Premier.  I compared them and it seems like they have the same ingredients.  Will ask doc if I could just continue with the Target brand.
  • One A Day Women's. My doc read the ingredients and said they were fine, she also prescribed me Foltx. (My mom had problems with folic acid with her pregnancies and the doc said it could be genetic so to be safe to take the extra. She also said you can never over do it with folic acid, it only helps never harms.)
  • I'm taking Prenate-DHA.  Not taking anything else with them at this point.
  • One A Day Prenatal Vitamins...that's all!

  • CitraNatal DHA have worked best for me (the DHA is from microalgae not fish oil). I take them in the morning with breakfast.
  • The 180 Prenatals - the Whole Foods store brand. I haven't been to a prenatal visit yet, but I'll take them and get the drs opinion. In general I trust Whole Foods, so I figured it was a good place to start.

  • I'm taking the Rainbow Lite prenatals and a DHA supplement. I can't remember the name of the DHA supplement but I was able to buy it OTC at Target - and my OBGYN had given me samples of the same brand.

  • I am taking the Target brand of vitamins.
  • I also take the Target brand and at night. I started off by taking them in the morning while we were TTC and they were making me sick.
  • I am taking Target brand and have had no problems.

  • My midwife gave me a RX for Prenatal Premier, but my insurance didn't cover them, so she wrote me one for Prenatal Plus. That's all I'm taking.
  • I'm taking a generic from Walmart and they don't make me sick.
