Gummy prenatals?

Question

I will be 9 weeks tomorrow. I started taking the Nature Made prenatal +DHA, but the doctor said to switch over to 2 children's vitamins if I am throwing up. I have been doing that for almost a month and really want to take prenatals to be healthier. With the constant nausea, the idea of swallowing a huge pill makes me sick. Does anyone take the gummy prenatals? Are they as good as the pills or not?

Answer

I have the vitafusion prenatal gummies. I've been so sick I can't swallow the normal horse pill prenatals. No they don't have iron in them but I figure some vitamin is better than nothing at all.

Answer

Unisom helped me a lot. I take one at night and feel SO MUCH BETTER. Also, I take a vegan food based prenatal that has b6 and b12 which is great for nausea and morning sickness. I highly recommend them, even though they're still a big pill you take two times a day. (Bottle says three, my doc was two was enough). I was taking a regular prenatal while ttc and it was making me feel sick.

Answer

I started the pill switched cause I got sick. But to me The gummies are just to sweet . I went back to the pill and just changed the time I took it.

Answer

Gummy prenatals don't contain iron which is essential for some women during pregnancy. I take my prenatals right before I go to bed and have zero issues.

Answer

If you take the gummy vitamins and it doesn't have iron you have to take an iron pill as well, I take two children's vitamins chewable and so far so good

Answer

I have been taking the gummy ones lately and I can literally take them anytime of the day. They get me what I need for now. The nature made ones I was taking and I am not opposed to them but I only took them after I ate dinner and when I was about to go to bed. I wasn't moving around so they couldn't make me sick and they were being absorbed while I was sleeping. No sickness what so ever once I started taking them at night
