Prenatal vitamins

[Pangie]

Just wondering what everyone is taking, over the counter or prescription and why? I'm taking over the counter ones, and a cheap brand at that. I used to take expensive OTC ones, but switched to cheaper ones while I was nursing DS2 (nursed till he was a year) cause they had the same ingredients as the expensive ones (and the same amounts of the important stuff like folic acid). I asked my Dr. about it at my first appt and he said its fine, they are all pretty much the same now.

I just always remember my mom and MIL being surprised-and almost upset-that I wasn't on a prescription brand with DS1. I think that was norm back when they were pregnant but has changed since then, so I'm just wondering what everyone else is doing?

I take two flinstones chewables a day. They are easier on my tummy. I did the same with DD.

I do generic OTC prenatals. I just make sure there's enough folic acid first.

Target brand but I add B6 since it does not have it in it. They settle well.
