I got a questions, What do you think of gummy pre-natal vitamins?? I'm really considering switching to those, because I really have a hard time with the tablets. they're so big and I have a hard time swallowing them, I tried braking them, but it's the same thing. they make me nauseated n throw up sometimes..... Do you think they're a good idea? Has anyone tried them??

I tried the Vitafusion prenatal vitamins and I thought they were good at first but then they made me start to gag so I went back to the horse pills. I think it depends how queasy you get, hope that helps, take care!

thanx Mindee. I took them today for the first time and I didn't feel like throwing up, like with the other ones. But I just notice something, they do not have Iron or calcium in them. Do you take different pills for those two vitamins??

Hello, I just found this site and Im excited about it! I too am taking the gummie vitamins. I loved them at first but now i try to like bite them in half and swallow them whole because they gross me out. Before it was like candy, now they give me heart burn so i might switch back to the regular pill kind. Good Luck =)

you need the iron and calcium!!!!! you should find ones that have those in them, if not ask your doctor bc those are two main things your body needs, the baby takes your calcium and will make ur bones weak! you cannot just take iron pills bc you would get to much. call your doctor, to find what gummie ones have the iron and calcium in them.

I hate the prenatal pills too...I think they taste like hay...not that I have ever eaten hay, but I imagine it would taste like this.  I am not sure if my insurance will cover gummies, so I think I am stuck with pills...one thing that I notice makes a BIG difference is to take them after a meal; I get instantly nauseaus if I take them with no food in my stomach.
