Just gotta say they may be good for the baby and I, but these pills should be given to a horse they are SO HUGE! I have a hard time swallowing them. I take them at night so the nausea I get from them, I sleep through it. I recently starting taking them with lemonade and that helped a little, but still....How did/do you ladies deal with the horse pills? lol

WOW Erin you must make Big M Very happy ;-) I can take 2 800 mg motrin at a time, and those are horse pills, but 3 prenatals... WOW. When I was preggo it wasn't so much swallowing them as them making me feel pukey.

flinstones are great if you hate swallowing pills. the prenatals that womack gives you at bragg are smaller and smooth, so i had no trouble with them.

I may have to try that when I get to Cali. Is there any difference besides the size or taste? health wise

Hahahaha I am sorry... but with my perverted mind, this just sounded bad. Hahaa....

I take GNC ones for lunch and they have NO taste at all, same size but they have no taste if you struggle to swallow them. The ones I got from the doc are hot pink and they have this weird nasty taste to them... so I take those in the AM when I am eating breakfast to kill the taste, and then at night before bed with my glass of milk.. haha.

They are horse pills. I couldn't take them with Gabe either, made me sick. I took them fine with Donovan but it was like my body was rejecting them with Gabe. Just thinking about it, blah.

ask your doc if they have the sample chewables... I did those for awhile... they were chalky but it worked!

Also my doc told me to take 3 flinstones so make sure they know you are taking those instead so that you are getting the right amount!
