I took the Walgreens brand one. It was a big 180pill container and it was only like $7.99, which I think is cheap. You can take pretty much whichever you want, as long as it has the right amounts of iron, and folic acid. Be sure to keep taking them if you decide to breastfeed. Once you are done breastfeeding still take multi-vitamins, just not the prenatal kind.

The first time around I took the expensive prenatal vitamin the doctor prescribed. The second time I used a generic one found at Wal-Mart. Held side by side there was no difference.
I'd go for the cheap one!

Since I have been taking multi-vitamins for years, my Dr. suggested that I just keep taking my multi-vitamin and extra folic acid. Prenatal vitamins can make morning sickness worse, but you should probably check with your Dr., cause it seems like they all give different answers!

I took (and am taking) Materna. WalMart has a generic version with the same amount of everything for half the price of Materna. Check with your doctor though before deciding on which one to take.
