Who else is skipping the prenatal and getting all the good stuff from foods.

Question

Answer

I think it's still best to take the prenatals on top of a healthy diet.

Answer

The problem is a major early pregnancy symptom is not wanting to eat or being able to keep down foods. You need your healthiest nutrients in those first beginning weeks so if your symptoms aren't so bad and you can still eat healthy and hold it down, kudos to you 👍🏾

Answer

Don't skip the prenatals. You can eat as healthy as you want but honestly it's very expensive and difficult to get all that you need out of healthy foods, some things are things you need daily and you can't get all that with just food. It's just too much. And not to mention, what about first trimester pregnancy symptoms like food aversions smells and morning sickness?
If I were you I'd take a prenatal AND eat as healthy as you were planning to without the prenatal. Because a vitamin is not an excuse to eat poorly, some things don't always digest out of your vitamin. It's in you and your child's best interest to do both.

Answer

Are you anti-prenatals? It almost seems like it?

Answer

I am taking them because I know I don't have the healthiest choice in food.

Answer

I've wondered if they're needed if you eat healthy enough. I've also heard they don't work as well as nutritional food, also that your body just throws away the extra nutrients from vitamins if you already have enough. I take them just in case but I really try to get all my vitamins daily in my food.
