Want To Conceive. Took Counter Prenatal Vitamins. Feeling Tired, Sleepy, Nausea And Stomach Ache. Pregnant?
Me and my husband have decided to try and conceive another baby this month. I started taking over the counter prenatal vitamins to help with the health of me and the future baby. A few days after taking the vitamins (one a day) I am feeling very tired and sleepy all the time no matter what time of the day it is. I have also experienced some nausea and stomach pains for a few days as well. Could this be the prenatals or signs of early pregnancy? If it is the prenatals should I discontinue taking them?

Hi dear,
You have not mentioned the contents of these prenatal vitamins, so i cannot cay for sure if they are causing these symptoms. Do a pregnancy test to confirm, and consult a doctor and get the right prenatal vitamins. You do not need to take anything other than folic acid before conception.
Take care
