Not taking pre natal vitamins second time around
I’m 6 weeks pregnant and the morning sickness is creeping up me very quickly. Last time I was sick as a dog up until 16 weeks but half of it was down to the pre natals I was taking. This time around I’ve decided I’m going to carry on taking my usual magnesium, vitamin d & c & folic acid. But ditching the pre natals.
This should be fine right?

No is that what makes me feel sick?
Yes the iron is the only ingredient found to upset your stomach, most of the gummies are iron free!! I found it was nice to have two different flavors depending on my mood as well. I’ve been taking the target brand women’s gummies, they have all the same stuff as a prenatal.
The only things you need to take are folic acid and vitamin d, anything else is a bonus unless you actually have a deficiency. I only took mine in first trimester then had to stop as I felt so ill, the smell of vitamins was vile! As I had nausea the whole pregnancy
