I take a prenatal vitamin and vitamin b complex.  I had been taking the vitamin b complex for several years prior to TTC as a natural remedy for stress and anxiety.

Oh gosh! I have a list...a long one! Although many of these were vitamins I have been taking long before ttc. 

1-Target brand prenatal

1000 mg Calcium

1000 mg Vitamin D

2-Omega-3 Fish Oil with DHA/EPA

I was taking an extra 400 mcg of Folic Acid but then was told I'm compound heterozygous for MTHFR so I was put on 1000 mcg of L-methylfolate (the already broken down form of Folic Acid) plus the 800 mcg of FA already in my prenatal. And then 100 mg of B-6 and one B-12 under the tongue,not sure of the dosage on that one. 

 I'm probably forgetting something. I take too many pills now!

I do the generic (store brand) version of One-a-Day PNVs (ironically, it's two pills per day - one multivitamin/mineral and one fish oil for DHA). Usually I can get them BOGO at $13 total.

Just the walmart generic PNV. I added mucinex (my ob said it wouldn't hurt) for a few days leading up to and after O just in case it helped. I was sick and not trying the month I got pg so I don't know if it made a difference.

taking the One-A-Day PNV w/ a DHA supplement.  I think they are making me all backed up though.  I may need to switch.

Right now, just an OTC PNV.  That will change when we get my b/w results back.

1 pnv with dha, 1 folic acid (prescription), and 2 liquid drops of vitamin D, recently I started drinking a glass here and there of pomegranate juice but I don't stick to it just a small glass every couple of days.

I take Carlsons natural PNV's with DHA and EPA, 1200 calcium with D, B6, an extra 400 mcg folic acid, baby asprin, and occasionally green tea and pom in the beginning of my cycle.

I take a pnv, fish oil, extra prescription folic acid, and baby aspirin (the last two are because of my dignosis).

Tapatio

I take the Target brand PNVs (up&up), plus an extra 400 mcg folic acid, baby aspirin, green tea (as a cold drink) and sometimes POM juice in the beginning of my cycle before Oing.
