Katie, just make sure it's Geritol "Complete" and not the one that hardly has anything in it. It's so cheap, something like $12 and one bottle has 100 tablets.

From another late O'er, CONGRATS!! I know exactly how great it is to see your O date inch back, back, back - and start to get into more normal ranges!
This is heartening, since I am taking a lot of the same things. Yay for ovulation! Hope you caught that egg!!

I have O'd as late as CD 26, so I know how you feel! It's rough.
As far as Geritol goes, who knows. It's one of those TTC rumors, people say using Geritol for your daily multi brings BFPs. There are word-of-mouth stories about it... Their slogan is something like, "Complete for what's in it, different for what's not." I have no idea. But hey, if I'm gonna take a daily vitamin anyway, and I had just run out of my other daily, I figured I might as well go with it.
