6 1/2 months out and got a positive test
I took a HPT 3 days ago and got a positive. I am only 6 1/2 months out. I was wondering about vitamins and food intake. On a regular day I take 3 chewables twice a day along with 3 citracal +d twice a day. I have added a prenatal vitamin to my nightly routine. At my husbands insisting, I have added an extra protein shake to my morning routine. Any suggestions brfore I get into the gyn?
i can't speak for your ob, but mine doesn't want me consuming more than 4,000UI in one day of vitamin A. also folic acid is key pre and during pregnancy. the average is 800mcg to not exceed 1mg unless prescribed by your doctor. i'm taking 1.22mg but that's because it was prescribed to me. the big thing they say is keep eating smaller meals throughout the day instead of three big meals. i was already doing six tiny meals throughout the day so i didn't have to adjust too much to it, just making sure i got the necessary calcium and bump in calories i needed, however each doc is different with what they want you to do.
