Um...hi, guys!  It has been ages since I've been on The Knot and The Nest, but I still recognize quite a few names!  This would be my first venture onto The Bump, and I'll admit that I'm still a bit uncertain over here!

Anyway, wanted to say hello.  DH and I are in the initial stages of this whole intimidating world of little ones.  We're not even really TTC yet.  Just thinking about it.  Smile

I did actually have a proper question, as well.  Can anyone recommend a soy-free prenatal vitamin?  The more affordable, the better!

    Oh my gosh...I got a little excited seeing you posted, thinking you had a big announcement already!  I loved my chewable prenatals, but I just checked and they do have soy :(

    Nice to see you around!

    Check PCC. I just bought new vitamins there that are gluten free, vegan, etc. Not prenatal but I bet they would have an option.

    Hello and congrats on thinking about babies! Smile  Rainbow Light's organic prenatals are soy-free.  You can get them pretty reasonably at Lucky Vitamin's website.

    FWIW, I took their one-a-day prenatal, and it has a teeny bit of soy in the glaze, and is much more inexpensive.

    There was a thread recently on the green living (nest) board.  Not all of them mentioned were soy free, but some are:  https://community.thenest.com/cs/ks/forums/thread/49971280.aspx

    I use these:  Thorne basic prenatal (recommended by my naturopath and accupunturist)

    It doesn't look like they have soy.:

    Welcome! :)  

    I took the Vitamin Code brand Raw Prenatals .. I just looked online and it doesn't appear to have soy in it.  They are about $30 a bottle, so more than store bought, but also better for you :) Here's a link to the ingredients:

    Welcome and best of luck with your TTC process! It looks like you've gotten good suggestions on the prenatals. Another thought is you don't have to take an actual prentatal....I can't swallow them so I just take a chewable adult multi (Trader Joe's) and Target's DHA version of Expecta. I also took extra folic acid before and in early pregnancy.
