Pregnacare Plus

Admittedly I am struggling to eat very much at all at the moment & know this won’t be helping! But, I feel like the pregnacare I’m taking is upsetting my stomach and just making it very uncomfortable etc! Has anyone else experienced this? I think vitamins are best digested on a full stomach but… nausea & sickness are in full force so this is a challenge. Not sure whether to try something else, or persist…?

In an ideal world it would be to persist, if it’s just not happening you could always try taking vitamin D and folic acid separately on their own? 🙂

Pregnacare made me really ill

@Megan thank you, this is what I’m wondering, whether that would be better? Or whether it’s purely an empty stomach/ not a full enough stomach that’s not helping me…

@Rebecca ah no :( did you do the vit d and folic acid on its own?

@Karis for me it doesn’t seem to make a difference it gives me a bad stomach either way, could also be the hormones though, I had it till like 15 weeks last time

@Karis yes I did

I am taking pregnacare at night time before I sleep. It is working somehow. Taking it in a day time is a big challenge tbh.

It could be the iron. It makes me very nauseous so I take omega, methylfolate (the methylated version of folic acid so you know you can absorb it), vitamin d with k2 and magnesium. You may also consider a b complex (this can also potentially make you feel sick so have to test it).

I’m taking Holland & Barrett’s Folic Acid and Vit D pregnancy supplement. I was taking them before conceiving as well and they haven’t made me feel ill. I just have nausea on and off all day from when I wake up until bed.
