I was taking rainbow light pre-natal and the good morning pill but about 5 days ago I forgot to take it before bed and the next day was less nautious. Is is vital that I take take the pre-natal right now?

I wonder too. I never threw up in my first pregnancy unless i took vitamins. I cant even take them while im not preg. I have trouble getting them down. I was never able to regularly take them during the first pregnancy. I am slightly more concerned about it this time as I am still nursing my 17 month old. But i am having nausea without the pills i know i couldnt take them without throwing up.

I had some days where I really couldn't take the big prenatal. I still had some folic acid 800 mcg from when I was ttc. It's a tiny pill, so I could still take then when nauseated, and didn't want to skip it in the first trimester (even though it's most important at conception and for a couple of weeks after).
