What type of prenatal vitamins are you ladies taking.

I am taking Trader Joe's prenatal vitamins my Dr said they are good ones. But when I was in the hospital the ones I was given made my nails grow nice and strong and my hair looked super shiny. The ones I am taking don't seem to do that for me. I am almost done with mine and wanted to see it any of you ladies recommend other brand I can try. Thanks

I used target brand my entire pregnancy.

I took Prenexa which was prescribed by my MFM. My LO is 3 months, and I still take it because I am breastfeeding.

Natalcare Plus.  My high risk doc prescribed it for my first preg and I've taken it pretty much continuously since.  I also take an omega-3/DHA supplement.

I am also taking Prenexa. I've been taking prenatals since I got pregnant with DD#1. I didn't find Prenexa until this pregnancy but it has a small dose of Colace in it.

I am taking Prenate DHA.  It's great, b/c it has the PNV and DHA all in one pill- and it has never made me nauseous like some of the other ones I tried.

Prenate DHA is prescription only- but with my Rx Plan, it ended up being cheaper than me paying out of pocket for an over the counter PNV.

Right now with morning sickness the only ones I can keep down are Flinstones   2 a day.  Gosh, I forgot how good they taste!  Otherwise I was taking women's 1 a day with an extra DHA/Folic Acid.

Nature Made Prenatal vitamins for me.  A parent advocate at my work suggested looking at the different brands offered at the vitamin stores.  Some will have different amounts of other essential vitamins.  I also take a calcium supplement since I'm not much of a milk drinker.

Costco has one that has DHA.  I was taking expectra to get the extra DHA, but the Costco one has the same amount.
