I've just begun my journey on TTC. I purchased a Target brand prenatal but became extremely dizzy. So much that I called out of work a few times. I cannot have that experience again (pa I tried taking at different times of day and such). I'll be going on a week vacation so I wanted to try a new prenatal while I was away. What kind has worked for you?
I prefer the One A Day Prenatals but I've also taken the Nature Made ones. I take them in the morning right after I eat breakfast. If I take them on an empty stomach then I will feel sick about an hour after taking it.
You've had no success taking it at night before bed?
I've just been using the drugstore brand of prenatals. i take them with lunch and they've never bothered my stomach. I also have taken them on an empty stomach and they've never bothered me. But in general I have a pretty strong stomach, so there's that.
You've had no success taking it at night before bed?
This worked for me, too. Also, my friend is an OB and says it is the iron that was likely making me feel weird. She took the gummy ones that don't have iron during her pregnancy and recommended them if I was getting enough iron in my diet as an alternative.
I take the Nature Made (? yellow label at Wal-Mart) chewables. I always take them at night right before bed and they don't make me sick. When I used to take regular daily multi-vitamins in the mornings I used to always get nauseated. I'd try in the evenings for sure.
Yeah I tired taking them right before bed. The dizziness was so bad that I woke up and kept having bed spins like j was drunk. That was the last time.
I was about 10 days in from taking them. Different references online said that usually the dizziness ends after 2 weeks. I couldn't take it any longer though.
I take GNC brand without iron (everything I've tried with any amount of iron constipates me to the point of pain). From what I've seen the gummies don't have iron, and these are cheaper than the gummies I looked into.
I take gummies (can't think of the brand) but I take them at night. I have taken pills in the past and they always taste bad to me (so bad that I can't really swallow them).
I take the Target gummies in the morning. have never had an issue with them. no iron, though, so I'll take an iron supplement if I need one if I get pregnant.
I also take Rainbow Light before bed and have no issues. I took Nature Made in the past, but they caused constipation and nausea, I think due to the iron content.
