Should I take prenatal vitamins?
Hi there! I have taken 4 pregnancy tests and all have said positive! This is my first pregnancy, so I was wondering if I should invest in prenatal vitamins now or wait until my first doctor’s appointment to confirm? (I have not visited any doctors for this pregnancy yet.) Thank you!!

Yes you need minimum folic acid
Ideally should be taking folic acid before even getting pregnant to build up stores of it, so crack on now! That’s the main one .. but you can by own brand prenatals that have other beneficial vitamins in also.
Yes take them now - even on the off chance you're not pregnant (although you probably are - congrats!), if you're planning to be, you should take them! Like @Amy said, folic acid at least!
Thank you everyone!!
congrats!!!!
Start taking now :)

Definitely get them now!! I saw my gyno in February and told him we wanted to try in the summer and he said to start taking them then so its never too early to start!
