  • Maybe take it during the day?

  • Do you take it in the AM or middle of the day?  Try taking it in the AM as soon as you get a little food in your belly. 
  • I'd say either change what time of day you take it, or try a new brand.

    I had issues with a couple different brands, just needed to find the right one.

     

    Good luck!

  • i take it right before i go to bed because it makes me sick to my stomach if i take it during the day. I did that once and i thought i was gonna die. I have a doc appt on the 19th. I am going to talk to her about switching or seeing what she recommends. :) Thanks girls!
  • i've never heard of prenatals causing insomnia but i guess anything's possible. or, you could just be having trouble sleeping and it has nothing to do with your prenatals
  • I think vitamins give you energy, so if you take your vitamins before bed that is probably why you are wide awake.  I can't even take my folic acid too close to bed or I am up all night. 

  • hey yep i have the same problem i have noticed that when i dont take them i to get sleepy idk weird stuff if you ask me haha i dont even feel sleepy i for some reason i will stay up till like 6 in the a.m cleaning and doing stupid stuff to keep busy.when i do take them
