∙ 13y agoPre-natal vitamins is what a pregnant mother takes when she is pregnant, to help prevent birth defects.
Some women, and this is very wise, start taking them even before they are far enough along in pregnancy for it to even be confirmed by a pregnancy test.
Even if your baby is still a zygote (fertilized egg) a Morula, (fertilized egg that has already split into sixteen different cells and reached the uterus) or a Blastocyst( basically a Morula filled with what will become amniotic fluid), will benefit from this.
It is a good idea to go on pre-natal vitamins after having intercourse, and especially when you know for sure you are pregnant.

Gummy Prenatal Vitamins?
One of the hardest parts of taking prenatal vitamins is the awful taste. Many of them try to hide the flavor with unhealthy additives like chocolate. The best way to combat this issue is the use of gummy prenatal vitamins. These vitamins taste just like the candy because the chalkiness of the ingredients is hidden in the gelatin. This means that the mouth tastes more of the flavors from the gelatin than the chalkiness of the prenatal vitamins. There are other ways to hide the flavor but most of them are unhealthy. It is possible to enjoy taking prenatal vitamins.
