the vitamins don't cause a miscarriage they help the baby develop. YOu may need to have a DNHC on your uters. You may just have a problem caring a child to term

No. All prenatal vitamins are is a mixture of vitamins and nutrients. You can take flinstone vitamins and get the same effect. But there's not any narcotics in prenatal vitamins, so the only thing that could happen is if you get more nausea because those are some big lookin horse pills. I didn't take prenatal vitamins, but I did take flinstone chewables and I got the same thing, and I ate foods with a lot of folic acid. But you can get pregnant immediately after a miscarriage, but it doesn't have anything to do with the prenatal vitamins.

No. The only side effect you could possibly have from prenatal vitamins in constipation caused by the extra iron. One out of six pregnancies end in miscarriage, possibly more. Unfortunately it is very common especially in the first few months of pregnancy. It is more important to take the prenatal vitamins and may actually prevent miscarriage, so take them. Discuss your concerns with your doctor and I'm sure they will also reassure you of what I've told you. Good luck to you.

No, prenatal vitamins wouldn't be the cause. They are to help a pregnancy to become healthy. Miscarriages happen for many reasons and most of them are unknown. I am very sorry. You can ask your doctor for some blood work and see if your progesterone levels are high enough to carry a baby. Maybe you need to have a progesterone shot or cream. Take it easy. Get a full hormone work up and see where that leads. Good luck.

Some people experience nausea which leads them to not wanting to eat. To help with this, take your vitamin after dinner before you go to bed, that way you sleep through any nausea. Another side effect some experience is a sour or metallic taste in their mouth. I know that my pills did this. Every brand is different and if you get that funny taste it may be because the pills have a higher iron count. Try asking your doc to put you on a differennt type of pill. I ended up buying OTC pre-natals because the ones the OBGYN gave me left me with that funny taste all day and I couldn't eat because everything tasted foul. Just be sure to eat healthy even while on the vitamins. Best of luck to you!!

Sorry about your losses,but OF COURSE IT'S NOT THE VITAMINS!!!
Also,are you sure you were even pregnant the 2nd time? You could have still been testing positive from the 1st pregnancy and the bleeding was your period.

Prenatal vitamins don't cause bleeding. That be might another miscarriage call emergency or urgent care and talk to someone.

No. Unless the bottle had poison in it, instead of vitamins, they did not cause miscarriages. Most miscarriages have no external cause. It was nothing you did or took. The baby's chromosomes just were not viable.

You should go see your doctor about what is happening and bring the vitiams you are taking too. It's probably not the vitiman but it's better to know for sure.

prenatal vitamins don't usually have those kind of side affects. I would contact a doctor and see what he/she thinks.
