First, don't panic about the vitamins. IF - and I stress IF - you cannot take them, it will not hurt the baby. I'm not a medical professional, but I've been through 3 high-risk pregnancies: one of my own 33 years ago - toxemia, etc.. and could not take the vitamins. The dr. said then the baby would be fine (she was!) and she would just pull the vitamins from my body (and you need to replinish after the birth). Then, my daughter had hyperemesis with both of her pregnancies - talk about sick - vomitting over 20 x a day, can't keep anything down - hospitalized about once a month until - thank God! - a new OB/GYN in town knew about the condition and the right drugs to give her. The mother and the baby are at severe risk during this illness/condition and they even talked about inserting a "pic"?? line - she had to go to the hospital and be hydrated so many times. BUT, saying all this to tell you - no vitamins either time and both healthy baby girls. It's not the optimal answer, but, if you cannot tolerate the vitamins, you will both be OK. Before we knew my daughter could not tolerate anything - he recommended a certain ceral - something like Special K??? - that had lots of vitamins in it. Can you try that? Maybe vitamin fortified foods??? You are going to be fine! {{Hugs}} - GaGa (Dorothy)
