Is there a chewable prenatal vit out there?  I currently take 2 chewable centrum silvers/day, 1200 mg of calcium citrate and 65 iron. (was taking 1600 calcium but ob/gyn said cut back due to risk of kidney stones right now).

I never took a chewable prenatal, but I think some of the ladies in here have.  Hopefully someone will speak up.  I just had to say we have the same surgeon~ How awesome!  Hope you find your answer soon!

we have talked a time or two!!!  Dr. W.  does not know my intentions yet  but have seen the ob/gyn to discuss it....since i am 38 I am trying to get my ducks in a row here.

I missed the support group meeting this weekend, did you go?  Are we having one in Dec?

I missed the one this weekend, also~  I am thinking yes on December.  Girl, you're far enough out that he's not gonna think twice about you having a baby.  Think what he must have been thinking when I got pregnant at 7 mos out and I was taking precautions against it haha.  Which ob/gyn do you see?  I go to Dr Zweig down there in Lawton.   Hope to see you in Dec!

I have a prescription for chewable prenatal vitamins. They are nasty tasing but I just make sure I have a drink and a bite of food to take right after I chew it. I don't know what brand they are, I requested them when I found out I was pregnant cause I can't swallow pills anymore since I have a lap band.

I was prescribed Natachews (sorry, can't remember if that's the exact name?) chewable prenatals. Then our pharmacy couldn't seem to get anymore so my OB just had me take 1x chewable Centrum regular, along with separate folic acid and B, C, D vits. Regular labs determined how much to increase.

Yes, can't remember the name, but pharmacy had to order them, but not much more expensive. Ask you Dr. or midwife
