Yeah they do make me nauseous unless I take them with food. I usually take mine with lunch or dinner. I’ve added in additional iron supplement and that will also make me nauseous unless taken w/food…

I switched to the Olly prenatal gummies because I couldn’t deal with the pills! They don’t have iron, but my iron was good on my bloodwork so my OB was okay with it. It’s so much better.

Taking in the morning on an empty stomach is not ideal, our stomach acids would be eating away at it instead of absorbing slowly into our body which is why it’s making you nauseous. Meds state take after food for this reason, and I believe vitamins should be as well. Always take it at night after food

Yeah I can’t stomach any pill in the morning while pregnant lol I always take my prenatal at night before I sleep

@Kellie I didn't think of that I don't eat anything at breakfast I usually eat around 12-1 but I do drink tea with ensure the ensure is my meal substitute

@Liz I'm happy that the pills don't have iron because the iron pills I'm taking literally is a pain in the @$s the constipation I've experienced had me ready to go to the ER to take it out 😮‍💨

@Emily I've tried taking them at lunch and still the same feeling for some reason
