Prenatal Vitamins
Hello all. First time posting on this particular Nest thread. I figured this would be an okay question to ask.
While DH and I technically aren't TTC right now (we agreed we'd actively start trying once we found a nicer place to live than our little barely room for the two of us rental), I did do the smart thing and ask my doctor what steps I should take to prepare for that. One of the things she mentioned was prenatal vitamins for a few months before hand. Easy enough right?
I may have overwhelmed myself looking through the vitamin section at the store the other night since there were tons of different products and dosages. :-(
So nesties, any particular brands that you love/steer clear from? Thanks!!

"People talk about escapism as if it's a bad thing... Once you've escaped, once you come back, the world is not the same as when you left it. You come back to it with skills, weapons, knowledge you didn't have before. Then you are better equipped to deal with your current reality."

I think I may lean towards the gummies just because I have had instances using normal tablet vitamins where I have gotten sick soon after and I don't really see this side effect as much when I was taking regular gummy vitamins. I think I did see a few brands that had the DHA included so that will be something to look for. Thank you everyone!!

You may not want them after you are pregnant so it might be a good idea to get a pill form, too.
