Prenatals

Re: Prenatals

  • @Texafornian have you tried putting them in the fridge? When I used a different brand and got fish burps, that helped. 




  • Another question...anyone finding they react/bloat/burp less if taking prenatals at night versus in the morning? I'm taking mine in the AM and I swear they make me feel worse throughout the day...thinking of switching

  • @Texafornian  I have always done night, so I can't give a comparison, but my OB did tell me to take them at night...so I wonder if that was why.

  • Taking them at night was 50/50 for me. I still got the bloat after taking them, but didn't really notice since I was asleep. However sometimes the nausea that comes with taking my prenatals will end up keeping me awake through the night.
  • I'm having a really hard time remembering to take my prenatals. I've missed them twice this week. I feel like I should set an alarm. I'm worried that my forgetfulness is going to cause problems for me. 
  • I like to take mine at night (gummies) and have no issues, but some people are sensitive to the vit b12 and it keeps them up all night.

  • Think I'll skip them in the morning tomorrow and try them before bed instead tomorrow night instead and see how it goes...

  • @Texafornian smartypants gummy prenatals have omega 3 in them and have never given me fishy burps. I dont know exactly how much omega 3 they have though.

  • My OB gave me a bunch of sample kinds and they all made me sick! So I told her I wanted to stick with the gummy kind I forget the brand but I was recommended to me by a reliable friend. My doctor looked at me like I was crazy and told me to let her know when I change my mind.
  • @Texafornian I used to take them in the morning and I always felt so sick after!  I take them at night now with no issues.

  • @sableeg I took them last night and seemed to toss and turn a little more plus I felt a headache 2x during the night like I'd had a mild hangover. Going to try again tonight but might have to switch back to day...

  • I'm taking the Olly gummies and they're pretty decent. Tastes ok, no trying to swallow pills, and no adverse reactions. 
  • Oh no, @Texafornian I'm sorry to hear that!  It's wild how vitamins can have such an effect!
