Prenatal Vitamins????

[daughteroftheking]

Hey all...

Does anyone know of any safe, wheat-free, gluten-free prenatal vitamins? I don't know where to begin. I am trying to find some before I get pregnant! I want to avoid being sick all the time because of the vitamins. Please pass along anything you know...any info. will be helpful!! Thanks!

I got "Mother to be" brand prenatals - but it looks like since I got it, they changed their formula to include barley grass.

I'm still taking them when I have need, as I am nursing - but I am leery. I don't feel like I've been getting glutened though.

Wholefoods had other gluten free brands, but off hand I can't remember what they were. There's a formula here in Germany, but it tastes worse than Mother to be, and I feel funny when I take it (it sits on my stomach funny).

No mention of gluten but might be worth a call. 888-669-3663

Rainbow Light brand Prenatal One states no gluten on the label. They also have a more involved system that I believe is also GF, but it is something like 6 pills a day.(6 pills, really? During morning sickness, and even beyond, when it's all you can do to choke down 1 pill? What were they thinking?)

Nature's Blend brand vitamins are what I am currently buying. They are widely available, inexpensive, and they say right on the label that they are gluten free.
