Welcome to the boards Kimberly!

I'm 32 weeks pg and since pregnancy can sometimes make C worse (especially with a supplement added into the equation) I haven't taken one vitamin supplement during my entire pregnancy. Since the IBS diet is a healthy one, my doctor is very confident that I'm getting all my needed vitamins and minerals in my diet. (the baby actually gets everything it needs, it's your own body that may or may not get enough) I just really make sure to eat plenty of all the right stuff. I'm not telling you that you should forfeit taking a supplement, but if you think about it, women have been having babies since the beginning of time... I think it's pretty safe to say that early on, they probably weren't taking supplements and just relied on their diets.

Good luck with conception! I hope things work out for you!
