What's the deal with these prenatal gummies?
Just read this article about the top prenatal vitamins for 2025, and I'm curious what y'all think. I've been using gummies for a while because pills make me nauseous, but I wonder if they're as good as the traditional ones? Here's the link if anyone wants to check it out: [link]
I'm a bit old-school, I'll admit. I've always taken the capsule kind because that's what my doc recommended. Gummies seem less reliable to me, but I know they're popular. My sister used gummies and had a healthy baby, so I guess it's fine. Just make sure they have enough iron and folic acid, ya know?
Busy mom of two here – I totally get the gummy appeal. I just wish they had more iron. I've been taking the SmartyPants ones, but I have to supplement with an iron pill anyway. The taste is a win though! Anyone else find that gummies help with the morning sickness? They're easier on the stomach I feel.
As a broke student, those fancy gummies are way out of my budget. I've been using the generic store brand gummies and they seem okay. But I always check the label for methylfolate instead of folic acid – better absorption. Does the article mention that? It's a game changer!
