lol this is me with my emeprazole, i usually don’t take it if i don’t remember if i’ve taken it or not to be safe , i don’t think doubling up on prenatals is a good idea as it has the ideal vitamin in take for 1 day especially if your going to take it the morning after too , i’d wait till tomorrow morning just for peace of mind ( whatever the time is with you)

If I don't remember, I don't take it.

One day of missing them will be fine. Better than doubling on accident IMO

I forget to take them. If you took 2, you’ve got my dose too 🤣

It’s not recommend to take two

If you don’t remember it’s safer to skip than take 2, maybe use a notes app to keep a reminder or set a reminder to take it same time each day x

Create a routine time that u can easily remember l always did first thing in the morning because once l get my day started I'm gonna forget to take those pills later that day 🤣🤣🤣
Answer if u don't remember just start fresh tomorrow

I would do it. Your body will just pee out the excess vitamins that it can’t absorb.

If you didn't take it today or you forgot just take it first thing early in the morning

Thanks everyone! Im gonna wait to take another until tomorrow morning; better to accidentally miss a dose than to double up it seems 💜

If you don’t remember don’t take it. Especially if it has iron in it. It’s safer to skip a day of vitamins than to accidentally take two.

That’s y I take mines before bed because I be forgetting if I took it or not during the day time

I got a pill box with the days of the week on for them as I could never remember if I had already taken them

Avatar

I'm really bad with remembering too. (I actually also take other supplements during the day)
So I have 2 bags: one for the supplements I took that day, the other with the ones I didn't take yet
Works like a charm 🙌😊

I set an alarm on my phone that repeats daily's to take mine because with a toddler running around I literally forget

Another thing that I did when I was pregnant with my first baby was, I got one of those like medicine pill boxes and I would fill it every Sunday that way I knew if I took it each day

Friends wedding abroad

Hi all. I know this is FTM... But really need advice. I am currently pregnant with baby #2. Only 8 weeks. I didn't want to tell anyone yet, my partner and boss knows (needed for risk assessment reasons annoyingly). My friend is getting married in a remote part of Spain in ~3 months. I've already had a few minor complications, pain, bleeding, vanishing twin... I got preeclampsia last pregnancy and a terrible birth.
I am pretty sure I don't feel comfortable flying and then travelling out to a remote part of Spain during pregnancy. It will just be me and my toddler. I know it's overcautious but I just don't feel comfortable. I'm not even sure if I am going to be classified as high risk pregnancy or not.
How do I handle this? I need to tell her ASAP, but I didn't really want to tell anyone yet as doc told me miscarriage risk is a bit increased with vanishing twin. Any ideas?

Anxious/depressed

My first pregnancy symptom was my anxiety out of nowhere. I feel like I'm a bundle of nerves and just so scared of everything. Is anyone else feeling similar? How are you managing? Are we contributing it to hormones?

Sneak Peek Test

I did the sneak peek test at 15 weeks pregnant, and the results just came back girl! Has anyone ever taken the test, gotten girl, and it been wrong?
