The doc gave me on some new vitimins today, in hope that these will help for prentals so I can start getting stuff in me. I am going to start taking them tomorrow. He said I can do 1/2 of one in the moring then one at lunch or super so maybe that will work I hope! The iron is so upsetting to my stomach though. I just hope these work out! I need good vibes and prayers that they do! Thanks everyone! Wish me luck!!! emmasmom ibs-c gas

Good luck and just an FYI when I took them (I'm IBS C) you need to up your fiber intake. The extra iron can be constipating! I also took 2 stool softners every night as well. ( which are safe during pregnancy too!) Also I took my vitamin right before bed and it seemed less upsetting to my tummy. Just some thoughts!

Sending {{Hugs}}and lots of prayers your way... It's always hard for me to start new meds of any type - I get apprehensive. But, just go into this believing it's going to be fine - and I'm in agreement with you that you will be fine and able to tolerate the vitamins. Remember to take them with food too.....

If the iron pills are bothering you, maybe you should try Floravit. It claims to be easy on your digestive system. I took for a while and didn't notice any difference tummy-wise. Although you have to drink it like a shot, as it can stain your teeth.
