vitamins your body needs

You can call the nurse and ask. It just depends what your prenatals already cover and what your body needs.

Just little snacks for on the go, but packed with nutrients. Also talk to your doctor about your prenatal vitamins making you sick. You cold be able to take two flinestone vitamins instead. Not eating and not taking your vitamins can cause you and the baby problems. It will first start with you though because they are taking in your nutrients first.

Megadoses are fine in water soluble vitamins as long as you drink enough water. You basically just pee out whatever your body doesn't need. Megadoses of fat soluble vitamins such as vitamin D can result in an overdose and make you really sick. Taking a multivitamin is generally a good idea for everyone, but they are meant to supplement vitamins in your diet, not replace them.

There are are many benefits for both you and baby from taking your prenatals but they are not required, women have been having babies since long before prenatal vitamins.

I dont understand why some of u are filling urself with so much vitamins..did u calculate ur body needs and do u overpass it? To much vitamins isnt good too..

If your body is unhealthy, then the mind will be as well. All the vitamins, minerals protiens etc. that the body needs, so does your brain. If your body is lacking the proper nutrients, then it also lacks the essential amino acids that the brain needs to make and maintain the chemistry (neurotransmitters) levels it requires.

It wont hurt the baby but it may hurt you, because ypur body needs all the extra vitamins That are in it, otherwise the baby will start taking it all from you and thats not good. The folic acid is something the baby really needs aswell.

Your baby is pulling what it needs from your body and if you arent meeting that with your diet (which its very hard to do so) then your baby is taking it from elsewhere. My mom had poor prenatal care during a couple pregnancies and she has lost teeth, her hair, and her vision suffered as well. Its for the best to make sure you and your baby are healthy talk to your doctor about nausea because you need all the nutrients you can get.

I'm on the Similac brand prenatal vitamins. My husband who is a body builder picked them out for me because he's the supplement king so he stood in the isle for 20 minutes comparing all of the brands & says that was the best one.

I'm 26 weeks today & I haven't really taken any prenatal vitamins in the last 3 months. Ima get bck on my prescription vitamins on Monday & take them daily until she's born. Am I too late for something serious in her health already????

what I meant to say does it help your fertility or something or give you the vitamins that your body needs????

Your baby will take everything it needs from your food intake and vitamin stores..

the baby will get all the vitamins it needs from you and your body. The vitamins are there to replace what the baby take.

as in, they start taking all your calcium iron and everything else from your body and if youre not replenishing it for yourself youll be very weak and probably become anemic or something like that. If you dont take them at all theres only so much they can take from you and thats not good either... folic acid is importand for brain development, calcium for strong bones, iorn for their blood supply, it all around helps and all of this ia found in a prenatal pill...

I'm gonna just come straight up and go ahead n tell u no vitamin is going to make u feel better. They can speed up the detox a little bit but as far as actually making you feel better there is nothing. TTHIS isn't me saying dont take them because I suggest taking them I know I did because they will help get your body back straightened out quicker and make the process a little faster.

its not a big deal because the food and liquids you drink should provide alot of the vitamins and minerals your body needs anyways

just so long as you eat right you should be fine the prenatal is mainly so your body doesnt run low on the vitamins it needs to function

drink plenty of water, try foods that are dry, like toast, crackers and dry cereal, I like frosted flakes when I have symptoms. Your body is going through so many changes all at once, different hormones are present to help build your baby. rest when you feel tired and talk to your doctor. how far along are you? prenatal vitamins?

Can you have a miscarriage due to not taking your vitamins everyday? I tend to forget.

I take mine when I remember. Embarassing, but true. My doctor said the baby steals what he needs from mommy, so as long as you have a good variety in your diet, it isn't that big of a deal. He saif prenatals are more to replenish what the baby takes from your diet.

Yup they r right the baby will take what it needs from u so. Like calcium it will take it from ur bones n if u don't replace what the baby is taking u will be more prone to getting osteoporosis. Same with iron. If u don't take them u mine lose too much n be deficit n u may need a blood transfusion after delivery. So it is very important to take them even if they make u sick. Take them with a meal. Sometimes it's the iron that makes u sick so u need food with them.

Talk to your doctor, but perhaps the iron could be too harsh. I know some ppl who have had issues with it because of iron, although, it was usually diarrhea.

Are you still taking your prenatals? You should take prenatal vitamins for at least 6 months after having your baby as your body has to recuperate from such a strenuous labor. That's why it's called labor. - Please take your vitamins and see if they help. They have some very important nutrients to help your body heal. You will enjoy your baby more.... wish I could see him!!

that YOU have all the nutrients you need; baby will take whatever he or she needs from your body, and the risk you run with not taking prenatals is that baby will take the nutrients and YOU will not have them. Skip the dose tonight if you're not sure; it can make you pretty sick to double up on some prenatals, but missing a day isn't a big deal..just try to remember tomorrow :-).

Agreed, when taking vitamins your body takes what it needs and flushes the rest out your system and vitamin B is good for brain development so I dont see anything wrong with that. I have taken my prenantals by mistake 2 times in one day, my baby is fine, I believe it just helps with development if anything.

Hi, Your body and your baby needs alot more than you know. Please take Pre-Natals (maybe look for them in liquid form?) or at least do a smoothie with added vitamins(powder) and stay on them when you nurse. Gummy vites just wont cut it. Why don't you eat vegetables?

Just start taking them again regularly. Regardless of prenatals, your baby will take the vitamins it needs from your body, prenatals are to help you mostly.

ve heard as long as you are eating healthy the baby is getting nutrients from your food, just needs the folic acid in tablets to prevent spina bifida and other defects. :) ask you're doc if you want to find out .

Hey BlueJay, are you trying to do a bit too much? Maybe it's your bodies way of telling you it needs to rest? Listen to your body, it's going through a tough time at the moment, so drink lots of lovely water, rest a bit more, and be very very kind to yourself, you're doing great honey!! Really proud of you. Hugs.
