Pregnancy vitamins at 17 weeks?

[Lalla525]

Hi - I am still taking my prenatal vitamins (pregnacare + omega 3 addon, for some reason that's what the midwife suggested at my booking appointment).

I had my 16 week appointment last week but the midwife was so horrible that I forgot to ask about it.

So am I supposed to stop taking them at some point?

Who should I ask?

You can continue if you want. After the first 12 weeks it's only really vitamin D you need to supplement

I'm 17+4 and still take my seven seas x

My midwife said keep taking my prrgnacare plus

I've took pregnancy vitamins for the whole duration of my pregnancies. Now 27 weeks with my 4th. Also took some vitamins after birth for a few months to boost me up.

My reasoning behind is that I'm not sure I assimilate everything baby needs from my food, first trimester nausea was so bad, plus there are some things like fish that I don't eat. I just feel it works for me.
