everything is included in your prenatal vitamin. occasionally a doc will have you take extra of a particular vitamin, but if that is all your doctor gave you, thats all you need!

No. prenatal vitamins contain all source of other vitamins so you don't have to take them individually unless is the doctor prescribes you something else. You can look at the list of ingredients on the label.

Just make sure that you are eating healthy and drinking water as well as taking your prenatal vitamin and you and your baby will be just fine. Good luck to you!

No you shouldnt need any more unless the doctor says. I took Omega 3 Fish pills to supposidly help the brain of the baby and make her smart. I only took them for a couple of weeks so i dont know if it worked. She is smart but who knows if its not from genes. LOL Good luck to ya sweetie!

No. Taking too many vitamins can be harmful. If you require any additional supplements, your OB will advise or prescribe something for you.

I always took extra vitamin C to boost my immune system. Talk to your doctor,but it should be OK.
