heather200202 73 Posted October 14, 2013 Talk to your doctor. I take 2 prenatals a day along with the rest of the pills I have to take since surgery. I used to only take one as that was used as my multi Vitamin. Congratulations!!!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
k.y1987 0 Posted October 14, 2013 Unfortunately I'm in the middle of looking for insurance right now. I just turned 26 so I'm not covered by my parents anymore, so I don't have a doctor yet :/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They'll be able to help you find what you need. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Be warned, most of them are huge and always make me gag. DOS:358 CW:270 SD:1/28/13 BabyBoyDueDate: 11/14/13 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They aren't to big and I've never had a problem with them like I have my Calcium pills. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
