I have been taking prenatals since a few months before I got PG with Selin so for over two years now. I am still BFing so my MW recommended I keep taking them and we'll hopefully be TTC #2 within the next 6 months.
I take Thorne's pre-natal. It is all natural, vegetarian,
I started taking prenatals last month since we are starting TTC soon.

Thanks for sharing what you guys use. When I went to CVS to buy them I was a little overwhelmed by the choices, and the prices! I choose Women's One a Day because that is the brand I have used for years for multivitamin. Also it has DHA (in a separate pill) which my doctor told me specifically to get. They didn't upset my tummy anymore than my usual multi does (I take them with/after breakfast and usually feel a little nausea about a half hour later which passes quickly). However, the DHA tablet did have a taste to it that came back up several times during the day - yuck!
And I'm a vegetarian, yet I never considered my vitamins being vegetarian. Now I'm creeped out :)
I'll take what I have for now, but might switch it up when my current supply runs out.
