13 WEEKS AND LOW VIT.

i am 13 weeks pregnant and have a very low Vitamin D.  Its a 4.5 and should be about a 36.  My Doctor says it is the lowest level she has seen EVER.  I was put on 50000IU Vit D twice a week.  Hopefully that helps.  Anyone else having issues with vitamins and such??

Yes, I am having terrible levels with alot of vitamins. I just recently had bloodwork done, and I am now on 8 different vitamins a day.
My husband says its cause I have a little leech growing inside me...

Yes, although I am not sure what my level was. I take 5000 IU of D3 daily now, along with an extra folic acid and my regularly prescribed prenatal. I also take my regular vitamins for my RNY (B complex, B12, Calcium Citrate with Mag).

I had RNY too, and did a lot of research on vitamins. I think the best ones are Bariatric Advantage multi chewable (NOT the vitaband- lower % of nutrients in those). I take 2 of these a day, 3 500mlg calcium citrate throughought the day, 1000mlg of D3, extra folic acid, and the BA iron supplement. Also, the B-12 shot monthly. I just had my labs drawn today so I will see if this regimine is working. BA is a good brand for us RNY's because their multi already has almost 200% or more of the daily intake, plus the 200mlg of calcium citrate. They run about $30.00 for 180 tablets. If you get a few months supply, the shipping is usually free. I can't say enough good things about this vitamin after all my research and comparing.

i did early on. Low vitamin D, low b-12, low protien, low iron etc.... I became extra viligent added extra vitamins to my regimin and happy to report my levels have gone up considerable. And I am now in the normal range.
