Ok a little background to help all you mamas understand a little bit of my reasons for inquiring. When I got pregnant with my first I started taking a prenatal but I was not consistent with it at all. After a few weeks of inconsistancy I just stopped all together. We are vegan and I truly believed (still do) that everything we need we can get from our foods. I also have never had morning sickness (don't be too envious see my posts in the symptoms thread to see what I do get instead:blush) so I didn't have to worry about being depleted of vitamins and nutrients. I also had blood tests fairly often to make sure all was well with iron and B vitamins etc... Everything went great that pregnancy so with my following 2 pregnancies I didn't take a prenatal either. Then last June 2013 I got pregnant when my youngest was 15 months and still nursing. Because I was nursing and it was my 4th pregnancy I figured my body could use a boost and so I got a raw vegan prenatal and started taking it. That pregnancy ended as an M/C. So now as crazy as it sounds I am terrified of taking a prenatal. Then last night I was checking with Dr.Google about links between m/c's and prenatals and I found quite a bit of studies linking prenatals, especially high iron ones to misscarriages :frown:. What do you mamas think? What prenatals are you taking, if any? Thanks for all your thoughts! I am definitely going to be discussing this with my midwives but my first appointment isn't until I am 10 weeks!
