Do you take any extra supplements on top of a prenatal? Do you take extra B6 or B12? How much?

I take a DHA supplement every day. I have also taken an extra 1mg of folic acid, but my prenatals already have 1 mg so I don't always take it. I was taking a B complex supplement to help with stress, but I ran out.

My prenatals have an Omega-3/DHA supplement with them (It's 2 pills packaged for one dose) But other than that, I don't take anything else. I'm starting to think I should after 2 years! LOL

Nope- we don't take any extra supplements to our daily vitamin (mine is a prenatal). We are both taking Maca Root and I am taking EPO, but that's about it.

I used to take B6 in addition to my prenatals. I have to admit that I haven't even taken my prenatals in months.

I take B6, 100mg a day, and it seems to have helped, my LP went from 11 to 13 days in one cycle. I just started EPO as well because I have the worst PMS but it's all month! Last cycle my bb's hurt pretty much the entire time We'll see if it helps this month!
