My Yucky Vitamins*
Posted: 01-19-05 22:16pm

My vitamins are the #1 source of all my nasuea and throwing up! Just the thought of taking them makes me sick! Anyone else ever have this problem?? I stopped taking them daily and I read that that is okay. When I go see my Dr. I'm going to ask him for smaller ones or something....

Hey hun,
its okay just let your doctor know. He/she will do one or the other change the prescription or tell you something over the counter to purchase that will work just as well. I hope your feeling better..

I used to be like that with vitamins aswell. I just had to look around for capsules, it seems to work for me......Although I can only get folic acid in the tabs. I never take them with just water, it still makes me want to be sick when I do. I usually have flavoured water or something just so I cant taste it at all. Goodluck :)

Blue....Or brianbaby... I ahd the same probs with my vitamins and my dioc took me off of them. Then he gave me some without iron since it is the iron that makes us soooooo sick and so far so good. Except I have a big prob remembering to take them. I take my folic acid every morning but I have to take my vitamins with food or I barf! And I always forget!!!

I've never had a problem with them either, of course I keep forgetting to take them :oops: , i'm really not good with remembering to take pills, hence the reason i'm pregnant. Lol.

Two suggestions!

1) try taking with milk or a meal!
2) try switching... Like my first prenatals I loved but then my doc insisted I try these other ones which I am still taking and I hate but they used to make me totally sick but I just started drinkign like a glass of milk with them and I would be fine

but yeah try shopping around for a different type or brand

Rainbow light prenatal one. They are 100% plant based, you only have to take one of them a day and they're easy on the stomach... They also contain ginger which helps relieve nausea and they are covered with vegetable glaze which makes them slip down easily...
