I have been suffering a lot with sickness. My midwife mentioned at my booking appointment that the pregnancy vitamins can sometimes make it worse and a lot of them are actually not necessarily needed - just folic acid and vitamin D.
Since then I have swapped my usual Pregnacare for Boots folic acid and vitamin D. I have noticed a massive difference and feel much less nauseas! However, I feel as though not getting all the vitamins must be a negative for me and baby.
Anyone else in same position?

I have heard this too! Although still taking pregnacare max everydayšš the nausea is kicking my ass big time!!

I take Pregnacare Max daily straight after Iāve had my dinner. Itās never caused me nausea, but Iāve heard it can if you donāt take it with a meal! If you werenāt doing that before then that could make a difference āŗļø You could also look at other pregnancy multi vitamins & read some reviews specifically linked to nausea to see if thereās a better alternative x

All big tablets make me gag at the moment so Iāve had to do the same š

l felt awful taking pregnacare last pregnancy and swapped for an own brand supermarket one (like tesco prenatal vitamin). Funnily enough even the pregnacare bf vitamins postpartum made me feel awful so just took a standard multivit instead!

Iāve only had folic acid and vitamin d for my first two pregnancies - had two easy births, healthy babies, no problems with them at all, good immune systems (they were also ebf so that could contribute)

I canāt manage any tablets at the moment so have swapped to the Known gummies, anything is better than nothing I think!

Im not taking anything at all right now as my nausea and sickness has gotten so bad ā¹ļø

Hey girlies, I just wanted to come and vent because I know Iām crazy and I think my hormones are getting the best of me⦠I feel like Iāve been having soft baby fever. My ovulation is crazy before or after during it doesnāt matter. The father of my child has been asking me if I would consider birth control because itās not like Iām trying to deliberately get pregnant, but I also wouldnāt be mad at the idea if that makes senseš
Anyways, I feel completely scared of looking at all of the birth control. I used to be on the shot and then the one time I stopped taking it since I was 14 I almost made 12 months and then my baby daddy got me pregnant. And then for maybe almost a year they put a device in my arm that they eventually took out because they thought it was causing other medical symptoms and I wasnāt sexually active anyways they just wanted to do it just to do it if you know what I mean. But Iāve been looking over the Options down to the patch and I do currently suffer from chronic migraines, nausea and dizziness, and Iāve seen terrible reviews where people claim theyāve gotten blood clots and other variety of different symptoms. I feel like I wanted at least try it, but it seems so traumatizing and then on the other side I feel like every time I go to the clinic or the doctors office. Every other person I come into contact with tells me a story about how every other one of their kids they were on birth control.ššš I wouldnāt be mad if I ended up with A Child, but I donāt wanna have to go through having something like IUD or Nexplanon or vaginal ring, inserted and go through all of that to either end of pregnant anyways or something worse you know? Sometimes I hate being that 5% that always catches all the random symptoms and side effects.š©š©š©
Iām hoping somebody can ease my mind on their experience. The last thing I wanna do is the IUD or pills I hate having to swallow pills, but Iāve only ever done the shot and that was ages ago.

It would be nice to actually meet mom friends. Doesn't seem like anyone is interested. I'll talk to someone for at most a week and then it'll drop off. I gave up on the app a month ago but then came back when I found out I was pregnant again. Would be really nice to click with somebody. Lord knows it's hard enough making new friends as an adult!
