Are chewable prenatal vitamins good enough while carrying twins?

Question

I’m starting to struggle with pills and almost threw up last night taking them and then just didn’t take my last pill. Thinking about chewable prenatal? Is it enough while carrying twins? I’m looking at the belly bar chewable tablets since they have iron and calcium also. Any recommendations?

Answer

My doctor said take what you can. I was very nauseous and ended up in hospital on more than one occasion. They said it is better to take something rather than nothing. I was throwing up so much that some days I took 3 prenatal vitamins in hopes of keeping one down. On days that I couldn’t do that, I ate what I could. Same for food, when I was super sick the only thing that I didn’t throw up was plain potato chips. I tried crackers, and other alternatives and none worked. My doctor said it was better to eat chips all day and get something in than not eat at all. 
If you are concerned though, ask your doctor. They may have you take more than one if you can’t stomach the regular pills or they may tell you that you are fine!

Answer

I take the prenatal gummies because I have a hard time with pills even when I'm not pregnant. I haven't had any problems. 😊

Answer

Yes as long as it has enough folate or folic acid. Your doctor may have you take extra vitamins.
