@sparklingwhit Yes, the gummies don’t have iron, but you could always take iron separately. There’s lots of different iron options and maybe one will work better for you. I’m terrible at swallowing pills, so I take the gummies. Last time, my OB just periodically checked my iron levels. They were always fine, but had they dropped, I would have just added iron separately.
So, I was just browsing the 0-2yo books on Amazon, and the Rider-Waite Tarot deck was listed as a “Best Seller” in that category.
Which begs the question- who gives their baby a Tarot deck? Is there some sort of special psychic reading that can be done on the teething marks left on the cards? Or maybe just start ‘em young?
I’ve also been taking the gummy prenatals with DHA. I checked with my doctor at the first appointment and she said at this time I don’t need the iron and that the gummies are great. Like @tinattt23 my doctor said she will check my iron levels to make sure they don’t drop. I did buy separate iron pills which are way smaller than prenatals but I’m not taking it yet.

So I’m doing the 3hr glucose test this morning. I’m actually ready to get this party started. I had to fast for 8hrs, but with an 8pm bedtime, and being awake since about 2:30 this morning, I’m hungry!
@ashin121 Yes we do still live in Michigan! We went to State (if you couldn’t tell ) and moved over to the east side after living in Kalamazoo for a couple of years.
Ugh as much as I love vacations, I hate hate hate packing. Way too stressful when I have to remember everything for myself, DH and a toddler!! I probably won’t be checking in as much this week so hope everyone has a good week!
I just settled into my hotel (home for the month) after what was supposed to be a seven hour drive turned into an almost 9 hour drive... yay for work though! Excited to make some good money while in BY!
@pumpkinpancake good luck on your trip I hope its a fun one!!
Guys, I swear I’m not crazy. I know this is something we snicker at people about because they’re crazy. But I swear I just felt movement. I’m only 10.5 weeks. That’s not a thing, right? Has my last lonely brain cell escaped?
@DunkinDecaf I could have sworn I felt baby the other night at 12 weeks. But it was almost too strong of a 'kick' feeling this early on. So I'm skeptical. But it definitely made me jump in excitement!
I swear it felt like first flutters too. It didn’t feel like a gas bubble or anything. It’s not even 11 weeks though. If I feel it a couple more times I might believe it.
