Prenatal question
Did your OB/GYN tell you to start taking prenatals while TTC? I was supposed to see my OB last month but couldnt get an appointment until 4.12 -- i saw her a year ago for my annual visit and told her that the next time i saw her we would be getting ready to TTC so we didn't talk about prenatals, etc.
TIA

Re: Prenatal question
Thanks. I'm going to take a ride to CVS today -- Is there a particular brand? Should I get them from somewhere else? What should the bottle say?
Sorry, lol

Re: Prenatal question
I started taking OTC prenatals when I was ttc for #1. I took the CVS brand prenatals. I got a Rx for prenatals when I was pg and my dr just renewed them for me for this time around. I take mine at night after dinner because vitamins bother my stomach. I had no problems with either.

Re: Prenatal question
I would get an OTC PNV until u see ur OB. All women who are TTC should be on a folic acid supllement of at least 400mcg/day.
