Prenatals and m/s

I think the culprit of my m/s is my prenatal vitamins. Every time I take them, I get sick. I had been taking regular adult vitamins with a high amount of folic acid, but I just bought these last week. I did a test- yesterday, I took regular vitamins, no sick. This morning, prenatals=very sick. They are PrimaCare One brand

So.... what brand do you take ?

Re: Prenatals and m/s

  • I take HEB brand of the women's one-a-day prenatals.  But try taking them at night, that should help.

  • I've been taking the Target brand prenatals since my last pregnancy and all throughout nursing my DD. Definitely do as the PPs have said and try taking them at night. They make me sick if I take them in the morning even when I'm not pregnant!

  • Try the gummy brand...and take it at night. I was trying to ward off m/s by taking mine at night to begin with...so far, so good.

  • I take mine when I eat dinner. If there's something in my stomach, they usually sit better.

  • I take prenate essential. It's prescription left over from my last pregnancy. I had MS very bad and the prenatals made it worse. I find that the prenatals with the plastic type coating are better because they don't have such a horrible taste or smell. 

    I choose to do prescription instead of over the counter because my insurance makes it a lot cheaper than over the counter. I only pay about $5 a month!

  • I take the Walgreens version with DHA. It's actually 2 separate pills, but so far I haven't had a problem trying to stomach them. **knock on wood**
  • I've been taking the Women's One A Day pre-natals with DHA for over a year and like PPs said, try taking them at night. :)

    I really like the VitaFusion gummy prenatals. They don't make you sick at all. When I was PG with DS I started taking the One a Day Prenatals & they made me soooo sick. But the VitaFusion gummies don't & I can take them any time of the day. The only thing with the gummies is that you have to take an iron supplement with them because it's not in the gummy.

  • I take the Rainbow Light prenatals and am not a fan. But I'm an idiot and bought a huge package of them on discount a few months ago, so I'll be working through these for a while.

  • You could always try taking them at night. I take the gumies and follow up with a Flinstone for iron. I feel amazing in comparision to previous pregnancies where I was a walking bout of m/s.
