Prenatal vitamin is too big

Allison

I’ve always had a hard time swallowing pills. So when I got pregnant I got the women’s one a day chewable gummy prenatal. At my first doctor visit I showed her them and she said I should switch to a pill bc the gummy doesn’t have any iron or DHA, so I got the same brand just in the capsules. Now that I have the pills (gel capsules) I have such a hard time taking them everyday that I choke and gag on them because they are so large. I even tried to cut it in half but since they are gel the gross green stuff inside got everywhere and it smells and I wasn’t about to put that in my mouth🤢Does anyone else have this issue and know of a brand with a smaller vitamin? I also thought maybe I could take the gummies and then just get an additional iron supplement and DHA. just thought I’d ask first
