3rd Trimester

Have you been taking the same PRENATAL vitamins?

Have you been taking the same prenatals for the entire pregnancy? (not including trying them out in the 1st trimester)

If so what kind?

They didn't have any of my normal prenatals so they gave me a bunch of samples for another.  I wonder if I could still get more nauseous taking them this stage of the pregnancy?

Re: Have you been taking the same PRENATAL vitamins?

  • I have taken the same kind since getting BFP, It's Natures Made I believe, from Wal-mart

  • Yes.. I started with Duet DHA samples for a month or two, but then when I went to fill prescription my pharmacy changed it to the generic one.. Renate DHA.. So, now it is 7 months later and I just opened the insert to read that the DHA fish oil that comes with the prenatal vitamin and have been taking DAILY is derived from TUNA OIL...which is one of the kinds of fish we're not supposed to eat! I showed it to my doc and he said.. oh this has been approved by the FDA so it should be fine... I'm now freaking out, especially since they say the brain development is happening now.. I'm debating stopping it and just taking the vitamin part.  Has anyone else had this?  I may post this again.

    BTW: I haven't been nauseaus on either one of them..

  • I started out with some Walgreen's brand PNV.  After a while, I started having a really hard time swallowing them.  I would gag like crazy.  So I switched to Flintstones, which I still take every day.
  • prenate dha

  • No- I've used the Walgreens and CVS brand that are comparable to the One-A-Day prenatals with DHA, and didn't have any trouble switching back and forth. I buy whatever's cheapest. Which reminds me, I'm almost out.
  • Stuart Prenatal and Expecta Lipil DHA since the beginning.

  • At first I took the samples that the office gave me, but when those ran out I started taking Meijer generic store brand with Expecta DHA supps.  I always take them with dinner and never get nauseous.

  • I took Target prenatals for 5 years and up until my 8 week appointment.  Then I began taking prescription prenatals - PreNexa. I take mine at night before bed so they don't make me nauseous at all.
