Do you take a prenatal?
If so is it the prescription one or over the counter?
Do you remember to take it daily?

Do you take a prenatal? Yes
If so is it the prescription one or over the counter? Over the counter, CVS brand, but I supplement with fish oil since my prenatal doesn't have DHA
Do you remember to take it daily? I forgot a lot when I first started taking them this summer. Since the beginning of November I've been remembering to take them daily.

Do you take a prenatal? Yes! Concept DHA! Love them!
If so is it the prescription one or over the counter? Prescription.
Do you remember to take it daily? Yes! I take them as I am going to bed so there easier to remember.

Yes. I've taken many different kinds, but my absolute favorite (and the one I'm sticking with from here on out) is the Stuart prenatals. I take it daily at bedtime.

I take a generic over the counter kind. I'm pretty good at remembering to take it every day with supper. I've been taking a prenatal since before we got pregnant with Riley.

I think my CVS ones are a generic form of the Stuart prenatals.

I have an OTC one and I am not always great with remembering to take it but am getting better at it. I try to remember to take it every night but don't always. I would be better at taking it every morning but I don't always eat breakfast and I have to eat breakfast if I take my prenatal or it gives me nausea so my OB just gave me folic acid supplements to take in morning because I can take them on an empty stomach and it won't cause nausea and then I will at least get folic acid which my OB says is really the only thing important to take in the first 3 months.

I take an over the counter generic store brand (HEB). I'm pretty good at taking them every night. I've been taking them pretty much since aug '08 when I was pregnant for the first time.
