good prenatal vitamin for band



Recommended Posts

I have been having trouble with the prenatals the OB gave me. I seem to burp them up and they are so horrible! It makes me literally gag. Do you have a favorite prenatal that you used or know of one that is chewable and doesn't taste horrible? Thanks!

Hi....I'm 16 weeks now. At first I was using this blueberry flavor pre-natal chewable from the doc that made me literally gag, so I switched over to ONE A DAY PRE-NATAL....It's 2 pills, you have to swallow, but I've been using them for a few months now and they are perfect.

I'm using Select OB+DHA, but I did have to have my band unfilled because of another pill I was taking just a week or two before pregnancy.

I take the GNC brand prenatal Vitamins without any problems. Another option could be to continue taking your usual Multi-Vitamin and add a folic acid supplement. From what I've heard, the folic acid is the most important Vitamin you need to beef up one when your pregnant (or trying to get pregnant like me!).

Walgreens has a line called Finest Naturals...they only have one pre-natal that u can take 2 ways... Take one as a women's one-a-day (i can't take ANY OTHER BRAND without getting very very sick)...or take 2 as a pre natal.....they are VERY small & cause no reflux or nausea!!!!!! AND....they're not expensive...bonus! Lol

I like these and have been taking them for a while - http://www.amazon.co...wms_ohs_product

I have taken these before and liked them but I can't imagine swallowing them now. Did you get all or most of your fill taken out so that you could take these?

Funny you should ask, I didnt have much restriction until getting pregnant, now between the band and morning sickless I can't keep anything down. Started taking the Omni IV liquid Vitamin supplement and a separate chewable B6 and folate. Have an appt next week to get an unfill so that I can eat again. At the moment I'm even having problems with liquids.< /p>

I feel your pain..I had my band completely emptied and no problems with holding things down...I did develop acid reflux...despite I feel no refulx but I still have issues about 2 x a week and only when I cough.

I take NEEvo dha--=no side affects at all...no bad taste.no burping..I actually take it at night. Good luck

Vitafusion gummies. But they don't have Iron so you need to take a supplement.

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!

      Today was rough...
      I've been experiencing a headache all day today that just won't go away. I'm thinking it's now progressing into a migraine. Does anyone else get headaches from taking vitamin B12? I did some research and learned that usually a lack of B12 causes headaches. But I've noticed when I take it, I have reoccurring headaches. 😫
