Decided to take pregnacare rather than just folic acid as I feel really run down with two small children to look after (really hope a small gap will be great when they're older but killing me right now). I always thought that iron was supposed to bung you up, but it seems to do the opposite (had iron prescribed with my 1st pregancy and think it was the same then), has anyone else found this? I can actually only cope with taking pregnacare every other day and just folic acid in between.

Just wondering if anyone else has this problem with iron or if it's just me..........

Hi Sunny, welcome to Tri 1!!!

I didn't really think about checking what was in it as it was 3 for 2 in Tesco. just can't believe it's doing the opposite to bunging me up again, not sure which is worse some mornings, waking up and feeling sick or waking and legging it to the loo cos of the iron!!! TMI!!!! x x
