supplements

[inky]

Is everyone else taking supplements for vitamins / folic acid etc? I'm using Sanatogen Pro Natal but the tablets are huge, and I'm so nauseous that getting them down and keeping them down is starting to become a problem!! Anyone else know of anything better, or just something smaller so they don't keep making me ?

I took pregnacare and had no bother with them

I've been using the one you are hun, because they have loads of extra vitamins in too. They are big, i couldn't keep anything down until bed time up until a few weeks ago, so i always take them just as i go to bed, then they have the night to digest, i figured as long as i kept it down it wouldn't matter what time it was x

I take the ones with the bottle of omega 3 too, they are big, I tend to get whatever is in offer and haven't found any smaller version yet

Hi Inky,
I'm taking the pregnacare ones and yes they are big. I started off on normal folic acid from tesco (own brand in a small yellow and white container) before I got pregnant though and they were a lot smaller. I suppose if you are worried about not getting them over at all, it's better to get the folic acid in even if nothing else!!

I take the Sanatogen and a 1 a day Omega - not the ones you buy with them as they work out cheaper to buy a higher strength one separate. I think they are about as small as they get hun. I wonder if a health food store might have some alternatives one in liquid form maybe?

Pregnacare I find to be not too big plus you get the recommended Omega whatever it is too

im taking Sanatogen Mother to be (the ones for conceiving pregnancy and breastfeeding) They are big but i no im getting all the vitamins me and baby need, im feeling sicky atm and i think there could be a problem when i get morning sickness but maybe find a time of day when u dont get sick and take the tablet then x
