Is it bad that I don't take my prenatals ?! They made me extremely sick at the beginning of my pregnancy and since I'm still throwing everything up I just don't take them 😪
i never took any because they all seem to have soy which im allergic to. Both my kids came out fine. i finally have some that i can take so im taking them now. never had to have a blood transfusion or anything
@lilmommy93, thank you I'm about to look it up now
@lovebuggg2016, my OB told me we will worry about nutrients later the focus for me is to stay hydrated but I think Flintstones would work better for me
I found that brand at Academy Sports but Walmart sells one called Mommi if you want to look into that.
My best friends ob put her on two Flinstones gummies to substitute for the prenatals because she threw hers up too.
they're called Baby Booster. Idk what all they had in them. but they have fruity flavors, chocolate, vanilla, mocha, etc. I liked the mocha most.
@jaxmomma, I have gummies now and the taste isn't bad but I throw them up ... Baby doesn't agree with them at all
@lilmommy93, they didn't have dairy in them did they ?? What were they called and what flavor I lost weight so I think they would be better than vitamins
@alfysmommy, I'm gonna try the kid kind my stomach quezzy ness is at an all time high
@babyj0916, I'm gonna ask tomorrow I did inform my doctor that I stopped taking them on my own
they were the best protein shakes that I've ever tasted. I am actually thinking about getting them again to keep the good nutrition coming in.
@mamamj, 🙌🏽🙌🏽 that's good because I'm not taking them they are just something more for you to do and make me feel worst
I hated takin mine at the beginning because they were horse pills, but then I got gummy ones from Walmart and they actually taste really good lol
@alfysmommy, women and children's hospital have bottles of vitamins on site so I'll ask tomorrow when I go there
@lilmommy93, so far they said the bby is fine I'm just wondering I mean I don't want bby suffering like I am but how was the protein shakes ?? I think I should try that
I didn't take mine with any of my pregnancies. never had a problem. no excessive shedding and absolutely no blood transfusions.
i had to do pregnancy protein shakes instead of prenatals for a while. we both turned out perfectly fine:)
Most insurances cover them and I would still pay $20 a month for them but it was worth it!! With this baby I only have Medicaid and they don't cover them 😞
@jessica0830, Ima ask about some kid kinds lol my stomach is weak the bby is definitely taking over smh
@desi720, I got back to hospital tomorrow Ima gonna ask about the Flintstones ones because the gummies and the other ones make me feel worst
the Dr said if you dont you'll have to get a blood transfusion, and ppl who I know didn't take em, had to have one ,so find some that doesn't make you sick
Ask your Dr to change them for you!! I was thr same way and he gave me a brand named Citral Natal B-Calm. They help with the vomiting and nausea.
@mrsrose, 😂😂😂😂 try a different brand. I know the women's one a days make me super sick!
@jessica0830, I have a short cut but since I've been pregnant I've been keeping braids in cuz I barley take care of myself and yeah I'm not taking those maybe when I feel better I'm attempt it but now ... NOT HAPPENING lol
Try the flinstones some ppl say that helps but vitamins are important because baby takes all your nutrients. And if you cant get it from food at least you have a back up in supplements. I've been real consistent during most of my pregnancy taking my vitamins. You may not feel the difference now but you will feel it in the end. I notice the difference when I forget to take mine 2days in a row.
@jazmin805, although I throw everything up I've been still trying to eat lord knows I wanna feel better
I forgot all the time. In all reality they are more so for you because baby will get what he or she needs BUT it will take a toll on you after a while. I got lucky with my son BUT with my daughter after I had her my hair started shedding like crazy! I had to cut it!
then at this point i think to not stress over ot ..just try to reax your stomach..anything you do keep down will help..anything. .feel better plz..
@jazmin805, I can't keep anything down and I'm lactose intolerant
That's the thing it's bad enough I'm sick all day everyday taking pills just isn't going to work out ... @heatherann219
i was the same way...i was advised to try flinstlnes for kids..then when i felt better i took my regular suggary prenatals..i dobt think its bad but if your concerned..i read to drink 3 glasses of milk instead a day
I don't take mine, me and baby are fine. My iron got low and I'm suppose to be taking meds for it but I hardly take those. Some days I just feel sick all day long.
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...
TWW!!
2dpo and on the tww journey. Anyone on the same dpo or close? Haven't decided if I will test at 12dpo or just wait and see if she shows up!!

I will be 41 :/
Short Luteal Phase?
I've just started temping because I believe that the reason I haven't had a BFP yet, after 20 months, is because I believe I may have a Luteal Phase Defect.
@kandyrhym, thanks I've googled most and they say they are more so for me long as the bbys fine the hell with those pills
