I took the store brand prenatal vitamin and then I also took Expecta, it is a pill that you add to your prenatal vitamin that is Omega3 and DHA to help baby develop those eyes and brain. You will take this through the pregnancy and then months after is recommended. I still take mine and I don't plan on having more babies- they are just really good for you.

A prenatal has really everything you need. The main nutrient that you and your baby need right now is Folic Acid A prenatal has 100% of the daily value of folic acid, along with the calcium and iron that is also a necessity. Best Wishes to you!

You only need folic acid for the first three months but you need Prenatal vitamins throughout your whole pregnancy. You should get a doctor and they will tell you what you need and when.

I agree with taking prenatal vitamins. They are specially formulated to replenish the vitamins and minerals that are commonly lost during pregnancy.

Prenatal. Taking too many vitamins can hinder your body's ability to absorb the vitamins it needs on its own.

Actually, you need to take the prenatal vitamins until you wean the baby.

Prenatle vitamins, your ob/gyn should have given you a rx for those when you found out you were expecting! If they have not done so,ASK! You need them, they help in all different aspects of your baby and yourself!
