Prenatals DHA - make me sick Posted: 09-22-07 13:13pm


Anyone else taking these? They're the prenatals my doctors office gave to me for brain development. They're coated in this disgusting vanilla flavor, i'm already nauseas 24/7 and taking these makes it so much worse. Anyone else feel my pain? I've only been pregnant for 9 weeks but it feels like forever! How am I going to last another 7 months!? Everyone says it goes bye so fast but it's taking forever for me to have my first doctors appointment. I'm so impatient.

I'm so excited for the change though. I want to go baby shopping so bad but my boyfriend says we have to wait until we know the sex. My gut tells me it's a boy. But there's this adorale mobile at Toys R' Us that I'm going to buy later tonight. I hope it goes bye fast, I'm super excited! You must be having a hard time waiting, only 2 more months to go. You're so lucky lol

Wow, that's like a whole month's difference if she comes that early. Who knows, you could have her before I have mine. Wouldn't that be funny? My whole family is betting I won't make it till Halloween. Shocked

oh!!! i forgot to answer your originall question lol

if the prenatals are makeing you sick then stop takeing them and go buy some flinstones chewables with iron
take two of them a day
they have the same stuff in them as the prenatals do and they wont make you sick!!!

< /div>

Oh I hope I can make it all the way till my due date. So far my doctor isn't concerned, but then again, I never say anything at my appointments. I hate feeling like I complain over something stupid, so I just keep it to myself. Embarassed

Probably not the best thing to do during pregnancy.

you should not tell people to stop taking prenatals. just cause your doc said it is ok for you to take the flinstones when i was pregnant my doc told me not to take those.

to the original poster ask your doc about the chewable prenatals they dont make you as sick.

Also try not to take your vitamins on an empty stomach. I would get sick if I did that, so I always took it after a meal.

Thanks for the replys. I'm not going to stop taking them. Once they're in my stomach they don't make me sick, it's the vanilla coating that makes me sick. Oh well, I think I'd rather take them than anything chewable though.
