Is stopping pregnancy multivitamins and folic acid at 12 weeks ok?

Question

Pregnacare and seven seas was making my nausea so much worse. As soon as I got to 12 weeks I stopped taking them even tried folic acid on it's own and still made me nauseous. People I've spoken to have told me they took them until birth.

Answer

Gummy vitamins are usually easier on your stomach! You really should be taking some kind of prenatal your whole pregnancy and while breastfeeding.

Answer

Maybe try Flinstone Complete. If you take 1 1/2, they have more vitamins than a gummy does, and should be easier on the stomach. Ask your doctor what they think about it.

Answer

Prenatals made me too sick to even want to live lol. I had to get my nutrition through foods and all my tests have been great. If you can’t do that then you could take flinstone vitamins.

Answer

If I don’t take mine with food they will make me sick. I’ve never had issues with taking my prenatals when I take them directly after I eat!

Answer

I took several brands before I found one that doesn’t make me nauseous. Mine is a two part persciption pack, I take the multivitamin in the middle of dinner and the dha pill as I’m getting in bed. Talk to your ob about what they recommend for you, they probably have a lot of suggestions

Answer

Try ....
Always take them at dinner. Have a forkful of food then take the tablet then continue eating.

Answer

Try taking another brand, I think I tried 4 before finding the one that didn't make me hurl. I always forgot it though 🤦 but once in a while is still better then not taking it altogether

Answer

Try switching to a gummy. I take Olly gummies Bc they don’t make me sick. It’s pretty important to take them. ❤️

Answer

Out of all honesty I had the same problem and so did my sister. I’m currently 29 weeks and I haven’t taken mine since week 13 or so just because of how sick they make me. I’ve tried many different kinds and all of them make me nauseous or throw up. I talked with my doctor and she said it was okay for me personally to stop taking them based on my side effects to them. Baby is currently doing great and is measuring a week ahead. Maybe talk to your doctor about it and see what they think is the best option for you

Answer

Dont know how to edit description. But I'm now 14 weeks
