Pregnacare

Im feeling really sicky about 1.5 hours after taking these of an evening

Has anyone else had this?? any other brands that are any good??!!

Are you taking on a full tummy, I found unless my tummy was full they made me so sicky, I take in the morning after breakfast

I took these in my first pregnancy, until I worked out that they were the main source of my morning sickness. This time I've just taken a folic acid and a vitamin D vitamin. When my GP asked about which vitamins I was taking and I told her this, she said that other women had also said the same.

Taking them after lunch helped me. Could it be coincidence i.e. morning sickness kicking in anyway?

They do say on the pack to eat first. I have also tried Sanatogen ones which are a similar deal.

Hey pina yes taking them with main meal!

Im hoping its not evening sickness :/ maybe I will go back to seperate folic acid/vit D and see if that helps. Fingers crossed!!!

Thanks ladies

Hi, I found switching from Pregnancare to Seven Sea's version helped - I had evening sickness with pregnancare - yuk.

I have tried a few types of vitamin by Vitabiolics- Wellwoman, Immunace etc and they have all made me feel really ill. I think they are just too strong. Immunace gave me a horrible, borderline hallucinogenic feeling. Don't worry, I know that sounds bonkers, but it's true!

I haven't dared take Pregnacare but have been taking Sanatogen Mum to Be and have found them to be great.

I take them after my tea but they too effect me and make me feel ill. I am 22 weeks and I feel less sick than I used too. I find having a little something after like a yogurt or biscuit makes me feel a lot better and less sick. Good luck.

I used to feel a but queasy with them, I've been much better since swapping to Sanatogen Mum-to-Be Vitamins

Sanatogen are currently on 3 for 2 at Asda btw.

I stopped using pregnacare as was notably feeling queasy and bad tummy cramps and couldn't sleep - I was absolutely wired! This all stopped after I stopped taking them. And I took them on a full stomach each night.

Last pregnancy I used Sanatogen mum to be and found them great - but decided to just go for the NHS healthy start vitamins in the end this time that the MW gave me, they are just simple Vitamin C ,D, and Folic and very cheap! Haven't had any problems with them.

I couldn't get on with the Pregnacare ones, tried taking them at different meal times but it didn't seem to make a difference. I had trouble swallowing the tablets too (made me gag sometimes) so I now have chewable vitamins instead which I have found much better.

I've tried lots of different ones and find the boots own pregnancy support to be the easiest to take but I do take them last thing at night just before I fall asleep.

Thanks ladies!!! may send hubbie to Asda on his lunch break to grab some Sanatogen
