I am so nauseous and have trouble swallowing my prenatal. They are really small, I take the prenate mini. Even though they're small I just gag at the thought of taking it. I go a few days without it. Then I'll feel ok and I'm able to get it down. Then I'll go a few more days without it. So I get it down a few times a week. I'm definitely not getting any vitamins from my diet right now. I'm living off mac and cheese and hi-c juice boxes. Anyone else having this problem??

    Have you tried the gummy prenatals? That's what I take and I've never had a problem with them.

    RE says the low egg count is likely causing my recurrent pregnancy loss. Less eggs results in more aneuploidy.

    Mine are horse pills that taste like they have a floral fragrance. Yuck. I have no choice though as they are prescribed. (MTHFR) I find it easier to take them at night and with a drink that masks the flavor. According to my new due date I'm 12 weeks and I still gag. Wondering if it ever goes away lol

    I was going to get the vita fusion gummies just until I feel better, but it says those have 4000 iu of vitamin a. I think the rda is 2500iu for pregnant women

    I knowwwww it's a struggle and I avoid it all day until I can't anymore. It was expensive so I'm finishing it and then maybe switching to some delicious gummies!:)

    Ask your doctor for samples of or a rx for Select OB. The prenatal I'd chewable and tastes like a crunch berry. I say prenatal because it also comes with a DHA soft gel.
