Elevit or Blackmores Conceive Well Gold?

[pretzel0]

Hello ladies,

I am wanting to start taking prenatal vitamins, but have heard and read from some people and that their doctors recommended Elevit while others recommended Blackmores Conceive Well Gold.

What did you take or can you recommend I take?

My girlfriend and my cousin took Elevit, but both said at different times that it made them nauseas so I was wondering whether this was a common thing?

I'm not seeing my OB until September so was wanting to start taking some now, rather than wait and asking him in September.

Thanks heaps ;)

Hi Pretzel0,

With my DS i tool Elevit - don't know if it made me :barf:as i was so sick throught my entire pregnancy anyway. We are ttc again and i am taking elevit and some other supplements my FS has suggested and i have been fine not sick at all ( unless i take the fish oil ). I don't think it matters too much which brand you use as they are both designed to do the same thing which is to help you have a healthy pregnancy.

Good luck :wave:

My doc told me to take blackmores pregnancy and breastfeeding gold ao i take them i cant take the elevit because of the high iron levels.

After a lot of research, I decided on Nature's Own Pregnancy Platinum. I've been taking them for a couple of months and haven't had any side effects.

I also take EPO and have started drinking green tea and raspberry leaf tea.
