I keep forgetting to take my vitamins.

NicoleSB80 · September 2012

I feel like a horrible mom every time I look at the bottle and realize I never took one yesterday. ;(.

Glad I'm not the only one. My problem was when I was suffering from m/s and nausea. My mouth would start watering when I started thinking about taking them! I felt like a selfish terrible mom because I was neglecting them for my own comfort a few days a week.

Oh snap, this post reminded me of mine seriously.

Yeah, I forget to take mine all the time. I was the same way with my last 2 pregnancies and they turned out perfect! My midwife said that the vitamins are really only the most important in the first 6 weeks. Obviously you should still attempt to take them throughout, but your baby will be fine if you forget sometimes!

I set a daily reminder on my phone. Even if I don't take it right when the alarm goes off I see it when I set my alarm before bed. I've also heard some people leave the prenatals and a bottle of water on their night stand so it's all right there.

I have an alarm on my phone and I still forget!

We are on vacation and I forget last night. :0( I set the bottle on the nightstand at the hotel so I won'f forget tonight too!

Don't sweat it. I leave mine on my nightstand and take one before bed every night. I find it a good reminder to have them right there.

I keep mine so that I have to reach past them to get to my toothpaste. It really helps me remember.

Enigma11 · September 2012

Sometimes I forget, but most of the time I just can't swallow them. Stupid horse pills make me gag everytime. It's not as bad since I've been on diclectin, at least I don't throw up everytime I try to take one.

synchrosally · September 2012

I take mine right after I brush my teeth at night. I keep them right beside my toothbrush so I don't forget.

Don't worry about missing a few, as long as you're taking them fairly regularly, you're ok.

CrazyMary77 · September 2012

I used to forget to take mine but now I put the bottle on the kitchen counter where I can see it, so every time I'm preparing my dinner, I see it and remember. Maybe put a note to yourself on the fridge?

SammieLou88 · September 2012

Does anyone else find that taking them at night makes them throw up the next morning? I tried taking mine at night to see if they made me feel less crappy, but when I do, I throw up while brushing my teeth the next morning.

Me too! I feel so guilty about it! I have been so nauseous and have been keeping down about 1 decent sized meal a day so I try to remember to take it then.

lifesadance · September 2012

I have a slew of meds I'm taking so I keep my med organizer in the box of vitamins so I won't have a reason to forget. I did forget one night to take my prometrium before I headed out to work and by the time I realized it was too late to ask DH to bring it to me. I've been freaked out all week from it.

Angela814 · September 2012

I have so many medications that I've been taking since I was really young, that it's just second nature to me. I think having a pill organizer box helps.

azerimama · September 2012

I feel bad for even saying it, but I intentionally stopped taking the ones I had originally bought. Perpetual nausea has led me to stop taking them since the taste makes me gag... so, I went out and bought the gummy ones today. Now those taste fine, so I think I'll be able to take them a little easier.

aislinnanne · September 2012

Getting gummies made it easier for me to remember. I love gummy anything so I look forward to taking them.

NicoleSB80 · September 2012

I have them in the middle of my kitchen counter hoping when I eat a decent amount of food that I'll see and take them. Problem is not a ton of food and I don't want to take them.

I started with the gummies and now they make me sick. I just need to suck it up and remember to take them....but I just keep forgetting. LOL
