Hi ladies! I was wondering, is it silly to take prenatal vitamins when trying to conceive? I bought some and was going to start taking them while we're trying to conceive, but I thought maybe it was too early. Any advice would be appreciated!

Thank you :)

Okay so I'll make sure to take them on a full stomach or with food. The vitamins I bought are One A Day Prenatal Vitamins, there were two things of pills in there, one that was a gel capsule and the other was regular pill form. The gel capsules STINK and look weird...I'm horrible at taking pills I always freak out when taking them. Thanks for the reply gl to you and your husband and everyone else!

Just a tip that someone shared with me ... if they upset your stomach then take them at night after dinner.

I use the Target brand of prenatals. They are cheap and you only have to take one pill. When you get pg. your Dr. might prescribe something else for you but store bought ones are fine. I drink a full glass of water with mine to help combat constipation. Just eat a fiber-rich diet and you'll be fine. And I take me when I brush
