At minimum, two daily children's chewables. Also, for calcium, do the citrate, not sure how much, but I do two caplets daily, b12 or complex, one tablet daily, and some take iron, but your doctor will tell you if that's low. Check www.vitalady.com She knows her stuff. :)

I am pre-op, but I take tons of pills. One way I helped myself remember was to buy those seven-day pill containers. I filled up two and put one on my bureau so I would see it when I get dressed and one in my desk at work so that I would have a back-up if I forgot. I try not to touch the one at work, but it's a lifesaver if I forget to take my pills in the morning. The nice thing about the daily pill holder is that you just dump the pills into your hand so you don't have to worry about opening every single bottle every day.
