Pregnancy Vitamins

[basilsenia]

Wondering if anyone experiences the same - I am 5 weeks. I take pregnacare. It really enhances my mild nausea to the stage of dry wretching. Does it make any one else feel worse 😥😥

Hey I'm 36+1 I took some pregnacare but I mostly took folic acid every day the ones from boots. They were great and actually stopped my nausea. I think I was sick 2 times in this pregnancy because I take the folic acid good luck my dear x

Hiya! I am 17 weeks+2 and in early pregnancy I started taking pregnacare and it make me so bloated, unable to go to loo etc so I stopped.
I spoke to midwife and it wasn't an issue at all as long as I take vit D and folic acid which is what I do now.
I was worried about stopping it at first but then I felt so much better and just getting as much vits from my food as I can!

Try taking them after your evening meal instead of in the mornings. I found that helped!

Stop taking it and just get a folic acid tablet from the supermarket. You don't need them and they make you feel sick. If you are actually being sick, you are probably throwing it up anyway.

Pregnacare make me want to throw up! I forgot and bought some a couple of weeks ago and... yep... felt awful.

I just take Boots folic acid and vitamin D combined tablets (designed for pregnancy) as that's all that you are advised to to take by NHS and I personally think Pregnacare are overpriced/unnecessary.

I think it’s the size of the tablet as I experienced the same thing when I used to take a normal women’s multivitamin. My GP recommended Pregnacare. I now take mine in the evening and don’t have any more nausea

If it's your body having trouble with the tablet, Pregnacare also do liquid vitamins :)

I found seven seas much better than pregnacare, no weird after taste. I also took them at night rather than in the morning, if you can't face either just stick with the folic acid/vit D.

I felt exactly the same with the Pregnacare tablet so bought the Pregnacare liquid medicine. I take with my evening meal and the sickness cleared up almost right away

I couldn't take pregnacare it made me sick until the acid in my stomach came up. I could only take severn seas or super market own. I hope you find something soon, if not ask for the healthy start vitamins available form some pharmacies for £1

Yep me too! I take the boots own version of pregnicare and made me really nauseous/sick, I now take them after my evening meal and its made a real difference xx

Pregnacare made me horrendously sick. Boots made me sick. I think it was Tescos own brand pregnancy vitamins I could just about cope with. Never take on an empty stomach

Thanks for all the replies! I have started taking it after my dinner and it's a much better!!
