Losing my damn mind.

ChiSoxMama · July 2013

I know I forgot to take my vitamin/expecta yesterday and I was going to make a point to take them... I poured my water and went to take them, but then I was distracted with feeding my son and the dogs and letting them out etc... And now I can't remember if I took them or not! UGH!

Now my dilemna.. Any clue if they're water soluble and will pee out if I take too much? Or should I just chalk it up to another day of idiocy and try again tomorrow? I'm leaning toward the latter but I also don't want to miss too many days.

Just skip it until tomorrow.

That's what I figured. Sheesh. I never forgot to take them with my first son, but now my brain is like mush. Lol.

I would just try to eat a healthy and balanced diet today rather than taking another vitamin.

Agreed...

Skip until tomorrow. I have been doing the same thing. Only I take mine at night and space it

I have to take my prenatal RIGHT after I eat dinner or I forget and if I don't take it with food I get sick. So at about 7:30pm as we are getting DS in his pjs and H is doing his routine, 3 cats under foot... I keep saying, out loud mind you, I HAVE TO TAKE MY PILL over and over again... Lol! This isn't a looney bin or anything... Lol

Haha! I'm glad I'm not the only one that already feels like they're living in a circus. Maybe in addition to the Ergo I just bought for the baby I should start saving for a straight jacket for myself

I missed mine Saturday night. I didn't double up just waited until Sunday night to take it.

I kept forgetting to take mine (and then would forget if I had forgotten), so I bought one of those 7 day pill organizer things and put my prenatal and my allergy pills in there. It has really helped me because if I can't remember if I took it, I just check my case. I've always been really bad at remembering to take medications though. It's a miracle my birth control worked the entire time I took it!

Like others have said, I'd just wait until tomorrow. Some of the vitamins in prenatals are toxic at too high of a level (not sure what that level is, but I wouldn't risk it). I had this problem too, so I went to a drug store and got a simple pill box to put them all in for the week. That way I can just look at whatever day it is, and if the pill is still in there, I know I haven't taken it yet.

I did the exact same thing...it's so much easier than trying to remember! Sometimes I wait to see if my pee changed colors, too, but it's not a foolproof way to remember.
