Prenatal vitamins

Hey everyone! I have a quick question. I've called around to a few stores and I'm having trouble finding prenatal chewable vitamins. I'm not pregnant, but I know that these vitamins have ALOT of the minerals/nutrients that women need. Has anyone seen them around? I've seen the gummies, but my doctor said to not take them because they don't have all the minerals in them as chewables do.

I've had this conversation with my doctor before, basically what they told me is the normal gummy vites (NOT with any extras!) you just take two instead of one. Or, you can even do the flinstone/kids ones as well (same thing, just take two).

My OB told me to take Flintstones chewables with iron as a prenatal. Works fine - and so much easier for me to take with the lapband. I also have to take a DHA supplement, and that is a big pill for me - am looking for a liquid or chewable form of that one, if anyone knows of any. Thanks!
