Vitamin D

I live in the UK and here we’re all vitamin D deficient, just took a little bit more than what I usually take. Don’t stress, just start taking now and get your vitamin levels checked when you have your post baby appointment

I’m lucky if I can keep down a prenatal vitamin. Most days I can’t sadly so I’m not stressing about the extras. I had the same problem with my first pregnancy and the baby was born healthy with no problemsx

You're supposed to take vitamin d when you're not pregnant as well. I am not sure what would be not fine. I think they can go over the risks of vitamin d deficiency with you.

Are you in UK? They don’t have much sun, so people there (men and women) are majorly lacking in VitD and so are advised to take it, esp when pregnant and then for baby too. We have SO much sun here in Aus that our gov doesn’t give that advice, 20m of direct sun a day gives us enough VitD (as well as through diet- oily fish, eggs etc) so Aussies usually don’t need that extra VitD. But you can’t change what you don’t know. Now that you know, start today xx (and drops for baby when born too. If UK) Prenatals should have some VITD as well as everything else so if are were taking that, should be okay

I didn’t take it with either pregnancy and have two healthy babies. I don’t even give them a multivitamin now 😅😂
