  NOW brand.... I have tried several different types while TTC and they kept making me sick. You have to take these 4X a day, but they haven't bothered me at all. I usually take 2 at once twice a day.

  I've taken Target brand for 3 1/2 years now and I've never had an issue with them.

  I take CitraNatal Assure.  It's a prescription, but my OB has coupons for $10 off your copay for 10 months and my copay is only $10, so they come out free for me.

  Iron usually stops you up - not the other way. Iron is a known "constipater".

  I am taking Target brand Multi, plus add'l Folic Acid. With DD#1, I couldn't stomach any vit, so my OB had me take 2 Flinstones chewables, plus a small add'l Folic Acid. Easy peasy.

  Target Brand - recommended by my OB. Took them last time and I'm taking them again.

  I take Vitafusion gummy vitamins from Target.  I love them - I have no complaints!  Although, they do not contain Calcium (but I take plenty of Tums, so I'm definately getting that) or Iron (Dr. said I can take a Fe suplement when I near the 2nd trimester, or I might start getting really tired.)

  I take Prenate Essential, and I have never had a problem.  They are by prescription though (but a little bonus, they smell and taste delicious!!  Like vanilla..I got extra excited about that when two friends told me their prenatals tasted like fish lol)

  I have had the runs since 4wks and was told to stop taking my PNV, I still have the runs and I'm starting to think it's just my body's response to all the changes - some people get constipated, I go the other way.

  I have been taking 800micrograms of folic acid, per my OB. I do think I'll be adding the Flinstones vitamins in soon though.

  This is what I've been taking too. I do have to take them at night or I feel sick (even before the pregnancy) but all vitamins seem to do that to me. I don't have any problems if I take them before I go to bed.

  Thanks all!

  Interesting to think that my digestive issues have nothing to do with the vitamins.. maybe this is what I get instead of morning sickness! If so, I'm glad.  I hate yacking.
