Re: Forgetting to take vitamins

  • I got like that weeks 18-20.  I regret it.  Looks like I needed the extra iron the PNV had.  I was falling asleep everywhere.  Now I'm back on track.  Keep some in your purse when on the go.

  • Welcome to the club... Its so terrible and it makes me feel so irresponsible but at least i'm not alone!!
  • I've been the same way.  I started taking them like 5 months before I even got pregnant and was very consistant.  Once I started getting morning sickness though, it was all over. 
  • Same here, I haven't been able to take them almost at all since the morning sickness hit. I took them for about 7 mos prior to being pregnant and now that I'm feeling better something is not right about my PNV because I cant take it at all without getting horribly sick.

    Dr. said it was ok, everything's looking ok and the AFP test was good. But I got some samples of different vitamins at the dr office that I can now try and see which one won't make me sick.

    Ditto.... my dr. said take them through the 1st tri and then if I can't keep them down it doesn't do me much good anymore.  Baby is healthy and sure is active!

  • I was like that throughout May. But now I make sure I take mine by scheduling it as a reminder on my phone. So I take them with some toast.

  • I keep mine out on my nightstand so I'll remember to take them before bed. 
  • I take with dinner so it keeps me in practice... even hubby puts it on the side of my plate when he fixes our meal LOL!

  • If your vitamins make you sick I know a lot of people who take the Flinstones ones instead and they are just as good the dr said :)

    I've been forgetting everything lately, vitamins included.  I used to take them every morning so I'm trying to get back into that habit...

  • I forget all the time, I don't think I have consistently taken them since getting pregnant. no matter where I am in pregnancy they make me sick. I feel bad but our Dr says I'm so healthy and everything is in good working order that I shouldn't really worry about it, she says just to eat gummyvites when I remember and try to take them when I am feeling especially okay, never when nauseated.
