I've been really bad about my consistency with taking the pre-natals.  But this cycle I'm on track and making sure I take one every day (with food!).  I also take extra Folic Acid, EPO and will be starting Mucinex after I'm done taking my last Femara pill.  In addition, DH is taking 5 vitamins a day.  After he runs out of his Men's One a Day multi-vitamin, I'm thinking of switching him to Geritol, but I still need to compare ingredients.

Yeah I think your right, if I could remember when I was taking it I probably wasnt taking the right protocal now that I think about it (SILLY ME). When I did take it I know that I was sick so I stopped taking the both of them all together but I'm going to try again to see what it can do for me. So have you had any results with the Rx pre-natal?

Well I havent started the geritol yet this time around but when I took it last year I was very nauseous and sick and I had just started taking the metformin so I didnt know which one made me sick but I'm leaning towards the metformin so I'm going to start the geritol and see what it does for me. Hey did the geritol leave a nasty taste in your mouth? And I started the metformin in january I wasnt very consistant with it @ first but I have been on a roll with it now.

Oohh....the metformin made me super sick.   I felt like I had become a diabetic and was having sugar highs a lows.  It wasn't fun.  Some people have no problems with it, but I couldn't take it.  I would think it was the metformin.  How long have you been on it?

I haven't taken the Geritol, but when I started on my Rx pre-natals they made me throw up until I realized I should be taking them food.  Ever since then I haven't had a problem with them.

I started taking it this week and have felt a little nauseous.  But I was also taking a higher dose of clomid so I don't know which one did it.  I took the pills though, not the liquid.
