prenatal gummies

[nov82015]

Hello ladies
My doc said they are fine ..but wanted to know if gummy vitamins , also including  dha folic acid , are effective enough , have any one else taken those , am I  missing important vitamins for my baby ..?
Having them until now ..week 14

My Dr say it's fine to take gummy vitamins but it dont have iron she say

The gummies are missing iron and calcium typically. Most important early on is the folic acid and dha but you may get anemic as things progress without the iron.

My doctor said the gummies are fine. I've been taking an iron supplement because my red blood cell count was down and the gummies don't contain iron. Don't take anything extra without first clearing it with your doctor though!
