Ya ya, i'm willing to lay money down that you're not the only one who has made this mistake durring pregnancy.
Relax, doing it just this once isn't going to hurt you or the baby. Just try and not let it happen again.
It's okay that you are taking medications for your UTI because without proper treatment you could go into preterm labor and that's not something you want at only 6 months.
Good luck!! I hope your infection clears up soon.

2 prenatel vitamins in one day aren't a big deal. If you were taking 4 a day for a couple of days, then you might have to worry. Only about 10% of vitamins are digested and enter the blood stream. So don't worry about taking a second one today on accident. It is when you are taking them like candy that you really need to worry about it.
I'd ask your ob/gyn about any medicaiton interactions you need to worry about, but so far it sounds fine.

I take two prenatal vitamins everyday, just so I get the proper nutrients that my babies need. I know that I don't eat right all the time. There is only two vitamins you can overdose on, those are ( I think) A and E, the others, if you body doesn't use them, they just go out in your urine. To overdose on the two (whichever ones they are) that you can, you would have to take so much in one day it would be unbelievable. Don't worry, just try to get better. And think, the vitamins are a nice supplement right now for the baby while you are sick.

Two prenatals a day is not an overdose, you would have to take a lot more. Tylenol upto 500mg is safe for pregnant women, for the other medications, check with your doctor

It shouldn't hurt as long as you don't take 2 every day. Doing it once is ok.
