  • Thank you, i am also thinking my doctor just told me to take over the counter vitamins, but I see that some people get prescription, why is it ? Also, forgot to mention that will be TTC. 

    Thanx

  • I took RX vitamins, which was Gesticare with DHA.  I also needed supplemental folic acid, so took Folgard.

  • With DD1, I took One a Day prenatals with a DHA supplement (over-the-counter) until I was too sick to take them and then switched to Flintstones.  With DD2 I took prescription prenatals, but I don't remember the name.  At each of my OB visits they would give me enough to get me to my next appointment.  It was nice though, I never had to pay for vitamins.
  • I took the OTC Vitafuse prenatal gummy's (I bought them at Target)

  • I took Obtrex DHA - no taste, small, and has a touch of a stool softener in it as well which comes in handy as constipation is very common in pregnancy.
