I'm taking The gummy prenatals and they are so much better than the huge nasty pills you must inform your doctor though because the gummys do NOT contain iron as a child's safety precaution against poisoning. That way your. Doc can give you a prescription for iron pills and those are also easy to take very small and not nasty

My doctor told me I could take the flinestone vitamins as long as they were the ones with iron. You get 60 in a bottle for $5. They are a lot more tolerable than the chewable prenatals my doctor prescribed for me. And what I do is when I take them I pop in one skittle with it. And it makes it even more fruitier. Hope you find a prenatal that agrees with you.

I take the gummies which helps a lot. The reason being is because iron is what makes it hard on your stomach but the gummies don't come with iron in them. So make sure you eat something with iron. Definitely make sure you get the gummies with dha.

As long as they are pre natals, there's really no difference. Make sure to get the ones with DHA in them. I was taking actual pills and when I ran out I switched to gummies. I won't lie though, I did like the pills more though but that's just me. Some women say that gummies are easier to take if you are dealing with nausea and morning sickness.
