Lol...

Shoprite prenatals

I'm 5 weeks out as well. I have an iron supplement, some B complex liquid, and a gummy multi vitamin. I've been taking the gummies since week 3. No problems.

How do the gummies taste...i want to switch to vitacraves

They actually taste pretty much like any gummy candy. Fruit flavor. Not bad at all.

I'd compare the gummies to your multi chewable because they may not have as many vitamins and minerals as the chewable. All the ones I compared didn't. I use Centrum Multi Orange Chewable, got it from Target.

I take 4 children's gummies, a multi, an iron supplement, vitamin A, vitamin D and B12 injections (once a week).

I'm 5 weeks post-op & I was taking Bariatric Advantage mulit-vitamin and it made me sick and nauseated every time and tasted like I was eating chalk...ugh! I recently tried "Nature Made Mulit for her" (Wal-Mart) it has all the vitamins and minerals suggested by my Nut (Zinc, Folic Acid, Selenium, & Copper). They are softgels and they went down just fine. Good luck on finding the right one.

When does your surgeon say you can start on pills? I go for my 2 week post op appt today and I will be asking him because I can't stomach them anymore! I'm hoping now, I heard 2-3 weeks post op but I'll see.
