    I had the same problem as most of the other moms. I threw up after each time of taking it, and I thought that I just had morning sickness, I threw up everyday until I switched to GNC

    This is my second pregnancy and I would not recommend this prenatal to anyone. The white pill is fine by itself but the moment the red one hits my stomach, it's is immediate throwing up. This is the case whether taken with food or without. I took Prenexa with my first pregnancy and it was absolutely the best I have had. I will definitely be going back to it.

    I am taking Similac Prenatals while going to the fertility doctor in hopes of becoming pregnant soon. So far they make me feel great. No nausea or side effects at all. They make me feel well rested and more energized. I would recommend these to everyone. I will re-review once I am pregnant and am taking them.

    Tried a sample, and right away started throwing up like never before... I didn't take or eat anything that would make me sick besides these prenatal vitamins. Maybe they work better for others, but i'll just stick to mines.

    I received this as a sample at the doctors office (just like many other samples) and this is one of the few ones that I really liked. I take it at bed time. I have no nausea with it nor does it smell/taste funny like other prenatal vitamins do. I finished all my samples and I'm def going with this one.
