Vitamins make me sick!
I thought I was loosing my mind for the longest time but I’ve finally figured out that my prenatal vitamins are making me sick! Does anyone else have this problem? Do you take them anyway or have you stopped taking them?

RE:Vitamins make me sick!
I would always take a multivitamin before I went to bed so I didn’t have a problem when I started taking the prenatal vitamins… however DH gets sick to his stomach any time he takes vitamins. I thought he was joking when he told me but he tried again and sure enough he was sick… I would talk to you dr before you stop maybe there is another kind you can take or something. Good luck!

I find that when I take them in the morning I don’t feel well for the day. Try taking them at night with some crackers or something to coat your stomach.

I was the same way with my first pregancy. With my second and third I learn to take the prenatal vitamins at night time before I went to bed and it was so much better. I was no longer sick or running for the toliet. A girl I work with has the same problem too and I told her the same thing but she take hers in the late afternoon and she said " it was so much better". Good Luck to you and hope it works.

I had the same problem...no matter what time of day i took them!!! I talked to my Dr and he advised me to take 2 chewable Flinstones vitamins every day. They are much better! Good luck!

RE:Vitamins make me sick!
I had the same problem when I was pregnant with my first child and I had to stop taking them. Then during this pregnancy my OB gave me samples to try before giving me a prescription but when I still had problems taking them she told me that any multivitiam would work including Flinstones chewables. The Flinstones chewables taste a little chalky but as long as I have something to drink afterwards I have not had any more problems.

I had the same problem when i first started ntaking the prenatals, I found taking them right before i eat something helped, but i had to eat something substantial. if i took them and then ate something like ramen. I'd throw up.
