Does anyone take primacare prenatals?

in 1st Trimester

I'm trying to figure out if that's what I took when I was pregnant with ds. It sounds right but I'm not sure. At my nurse appt they gave me some samples of something I haven't had before and said if it agreed with me that they'd call in a prescription for me but they don't have omega 3 which I really preferred and the otc stuff I've been taking doesn't and I think is making me a bit more ill than usual.

I remember that whatever I took before was a squishy gel cap type vitamin and was purple. Ring any bells for anyone?

    Hah and I just saw on the box that these ones she gave me have a stool softener in them too. WHAT? I mean seriously, if you need that why not just take it separately rather than popping a little of it every day?! That's the last thing I need since I don't get constipated when I'm pregnant - quite the opposite!

    Sounds right to me.  My Dr gave me samples of Primacare One and they were just as you described.  The pharmacy filled them with OB-Natal and they look exactly the same also.

    Yep - that's what I'm taking - Primacare One. ?Its a purple gel pill (kinda big) and comes in a yellow-orange bottle. ?It has omega 3.

    My OB just switched me to them.  On the instructions that the pharm inserted it said not to lay down for 30 min. after taking? Do I really need to do this because I try to take them when I go to sleep

    I've been taking Primacare One and tried to get refills the other day. They've been recalled so they won't give them to me. Now they switched me to something that I have take 2 capsules instead of one. I don't know what it is yet since the pharmacy just called and told me.?

    yep, that's what I took last pregnancy. They were purple gel cap.. It was PrimaCare 1 though.. I don't know how different it is but I'm almost positive it had omega 3 in it. It also had a stool softener in it, which was magic ;)
