  • As in prenatal vitamins? I don't know. However, I remember my doc gave me some samples of different prenatal vitamins so I could find the one I could stand. There was one for sensitive tummies, too - it was expensive even with a 'script, but it got me through a couple of months until I could stomach something cheaper.

    Good luck. Sorry if this is no help; it has been awhile.

  • I don't know if I have seen any over the counter plant based supplements (you could try maybe at a health food store).   I do know there are some script prenatals that are plant based.  You'd have to ask your doctor.

  • I took some, I don't remember what brand they were, I bought them at CVS I think so they weren't anything special.  But I liked them MUCH better than the fish oil.  I could not stomach that stuff.

    I took (and still take) the ones from CVS. No problems with them at all. They are algae based. HEB also some in the natural foods/vitamins section (near the back of the store, not the vitamins at the front). HTH!
