Is it safe to take prenatal vitamins if you're not pregnant?

If you are trying to get pregnant then yes, start prenatal vitamins right away. You don't have to wait until you get pregnant. Talk to your doctor and he/she will be able to get you started and answer any questions you should have.


What should I do if I think I'm pregnant?

Take a pregnancy test. You can buy one at the supermarket or chemist or get one done at the doctor's surgery. If you are pregnant you need to see a midwife so that she/he can make sure the baby is growing normally and everything Start taking prenatal vitamins ASAP, stop smoking and drinking if you do that, and see a doctor right away to confirm it and start giving you prenatal care. If you are taking birth control pills, you need to stop taking them until you know you're not pregnant


Can you have a miscarriage from not taking prenatal vitamins?

I was having a 'normal' pregnancy and HCG levels rising until I started taking my prenatal vitamins. Then 4 days later, I suffered a miscarriage. I found out that my coworker also suffered a miscarriage after she had been on her prenatal vitamins for 5 days. Maybe a coincidence, maybe not.


3 months pregnant what do i need to do?

You need to contact an OB/Gyn for your initial visit so they can evaluate your health and prescribe your prenatal vitamins. They will want to schedule a visit about every month, until your last trimester, to perform checkups on you and your fetus.


How soon do you start to show when pregnant think am 7 wks and showing but preg test is Negative?

This is not something you should "think" about, you should get a test from doctors office, preferably OB/GYN and get started on prenatal vitamins, which are different then others. A multi daily vitamin usually suffices but if you more of something else then they give then the prenatal is the best. You may also need chromium if you become anemic, which does happen when pregnant because of the extra blood baby needs during pregnancy. Go to the doctor and be positive about the pregnancy. Most women don't start to show until they are about 14-16 weeks, and a test would most likely be positive at 7 weeks. Get to the doctor and find out what is going on.


Can you take hair vitamins while pregnant?

One is not supposed to take these vitamins while breastfeeding because some of them are made with too much vitamin b and e, which in large doses can be bad and we really don't know how they affect the milk. And also horsetail can be bad as well. All you need is a regular prenatal vitamin and a healthy diet. Wait until after nursing then start taking this vitamin.


If I am 5 days late and your breast feel more fuller but not tender could you be pregnant?

Yes you could be pregnant, but it is also very likely that you aren't. Your period could be delayed by stress a drop in weight or many other factors. If you think that you might be pregnant I would recommend that you start taking prenatal vitamins (Flintstones kids vitamins work too) and if you drink or smoke stop until at least three weeks go by and you get a negative on a pregnancy test or if you get your period before then. Even if you aren't pregnant this is good for you, but if you are it is very important to the baby.


What is a prenatal period?

The prenatal period is anytime from the time of conception until the baby is born.

If I were 38 years old and pregnant and my doctor wanted to wait until I was 10 weeks pregnant to examine me (or at least talk to me), I would get a new doctor.


What vitamins should be for pregnant lady?

Beginning before pregnancy Vitamin B; aka Folic Acid - should be taken to prevent neural tube defects that happens at 25 to 28 days gestation. This is taken until the end of the first trimester. Pre-Natal Vitamins are an excellent multi vitamin that has all the essential vitamins and minerals - your OB doctor will give you information about which she or he prefers.


How can you feel the baby kicking if your pregnancy tests are negative?

You shouldn't feel any movement from your baby until you are several months along and quite noticeably pregnant, which eliminates the need for a pregnancy test. If you think that you may have only recently become pregnant, then you are not feeling the movement of the fetus. If you are several months' pregnant, then I urge you to go to the doctor. If your pregnancy has not been confirmed, then you are probably not getting the prenatal care that is essential to your baby's development. Call your doctor or health department, and make an appointment to get checked out. Good luck!
