For Vitamin/Mineral Supplementation during Pregnancy/Lactation "It makes me have tremendous heartburn and trouble breathing too. I didn't think it was the pill at first, but when I forget to take it I'm okay, no problems at all. It's definitely this pill that's not good for me. It tastes and smells good, and it's a small blue oval, a very convenient size for a pill, but it just doesn't do what I feel it should be doing. I also get migraines, and I am not your typical migrainer."

For Vitamin/Mineral Supplementation during Pregnancy/Lactation "These are small, unlike the huge prenatal I was prescribed before. All others made me vomit within 15 minutes of taking them, no matter when, food eaten, etc., but feel fine when taking these. As these are plant-based, there is no fish oil aftertaste, and plant-based nutrients are easier for my body to absorb. Baby and I are super happy with them so far!"

For Vitamin/Mineral Supplementation during Pregnancy/Lactation "I was reading previous experiences of Vitafol, some say they have migraines and such on this pill. This is my second pregnancy taking this pill (both pregnancies are very different as far as symptoms), therefore I wouldn’t blame migraine ...you’re pregnant after all, symptoms are overabundant) on this pill because I didn’t with my first child taking this pill, but I’ve had one migraine this second pregnancy. I like this pill because it is compact and easy, smells good, and I do not throw up after taking it."

For Vitamin/Mineral Supplementation during Pregnancy/Lactation "I took this prenatal during my last pregnancy and this one (31 weeks today). It's great! I don't get nauseous, and it's easy to swallow. I don't like that it comes in individual sealed tabs because they're a pain to open every night, but that's about the worst of it. They don't taste bad unless they burst in your mouth or before you put them in. Then they're repulsive! Overall, I love them though, and my insurance covers the full cost."

For Vitamin/Mineral Supplementation during Pregnancy/Lactation "I love this prenatal, and I cannot recommend it enough. When I took gummies, I wasn't getting everything that I needed. I was still experiencing nausea/vomiting with morning sickness. When I take this pill first thing in the morning when I wake up, within 30 min I feel great. I am not nauseous on this pill, and my headaches are minimal. My skin glows, as well. I feel like I'm doing the very best for my body and baby when I take this pill. It's quite expensive, but to me, it's worth it."

For Vitamin/Mineral Supplementation during Pregnancy/Lactation "Don't let the negative reviews deter you from trying if you can. I know everyone is different, but this is the third prenatal vitamin I've taken. I started with one I purchased outside the U.S. when I first found out I was pregnant and had no issues. At my first prenatal visit, I was given samples of a different prescription prenatal vitamin in tablet form, and from the start, it upset my stomach to the point of almost throwing up immediately after taking it. I was running to the bathroom, chugging water, and on the third day, even after taking it with a full bottle of water, I couldn't keep it down, so I called my doctor's office and they prescribed Vitafol Ultra. As soon as I saw the capsules, they looked near identical to the first vitamin I took without issues, and after taking it, I haven't gotten that horrible instant nauseated feeling anymore."

For Vitamin/Mineral Supplementation during Pregnancy/Lactation "I wanted to like this pill a lot as it was easy to swallow, but after taking it for more than a month, I missed a dosage, and the side effects started: upset stomach, nausea, and stool discoloration. It lasted for days..."

For Vitamin/Mineral Supplementation during Pregnancy/Lactation "I tried every top prenatal vitamin, even gummies did not agree with my system. My OB-GYN prescribed these to me. The sample box came with a coupon I applied to a 3-month supply. Yes, it was pricey, but worth it. They are easy to swallow and digest for super-sensitive stomachs like mine. Highly recommend!"

For Vitamin/Mineral Supplementation during Pregnancy/Lactation "Been taking for a week now. Yes, the pills are easy to swallow and don't taste bad at all, but they did give me a major headache. After reading reviews, I thought every person had different side effects, but they did give me an upset stomach and a major headache. I am not sure about taking them anymore."

For Vitamin/Mineral Supplementation during Pregnancy/Lactation "This was a horrible experience after taking only one. I got a bad headache, stomachache, gas, nauseous, and just all around not feeling well. Just took it today, so I will be glad when it goes out of my system. Horrible vitamin!"

For Vitamin/Mineral Supplementation during Pregnancy/Lactation "I had no problems with this medication. It smells good, kind of like a light vanilla scent, and the taste isn't bad at all. I love it. I have a peanut allergy, so I have to be careful with the prenatal vitamins I buy, but my doctor gave me a few packs of these, and it works great. I haven't had any problems at all, so now I just need to find out where they sell these or if I can get a prescription for it. This will be my fifth kid, and out of all the prenatal vitamins I ever took, these are definitely the best."
