I don't know what to do :(?
I'm 17 years old and 6w2d pregnant and have no insurance. I applied for medicaid when I found out that I was pregnant and haven't recieved anything from them so today I called our DHS office and she said that everything was "pending". I've been using the free clinics in my city for prenatal care but they only do so much. I want to make an appointment with an OB/GYN but I don't have the money to pay them out of pocket. Is there any reason they will deny me medicaid? I do work but I only make $8.50/hr working 25-30 a week. Can I go to the doctor and tell them that I've applied for medicaid? I'm just worried.
I need to know how to cure this.. fast!?
Drink lots of water, eat vegetables, and get lots of sleep. Don't go out and get drunk again. Drink honey and lemon juice to help your throat.

check to see how much COBRA is it may not be as expensive as you think and is much cheaper in the long run than paying the hospital and OB yourself
My 10-12 pound mini-dachsund just ate a Flinstones chewable childrens vitamin. Should I be concerned?
It was dropped on the ground and she ate it quicker than we could grab it away. It was an hour ago and she's completely fine right now, playing with her sister, and we gave her extra water to drink... Should we call the vet anyway?

Forgot to take my Prenatal vitamin...?
Today has been a long day for me, and its 11:30pm here in indiana, and i dont remember if i took my prenatal... is it safe to take one just incase, even though there might already be one in my system? Or should i just wait til tomorrow morning?
Are prenatal vitamins better then regular vitamins for women?
Prenatal vitamins do provide higher levels of certain vitamins and minerals than your everyday multi-vitamins. They're formulated that way because a woman's body needs those higher levels during pregnancy to provide adequate nutrition for both her and her child. The excess of certain nutrients, like iron, can actually be bad for you. In addition to the multi-vitamin, you should be getting these things in your diet. Just stick with a regular multi-vitamin. It's not worth the extra stress you'll put on your system.

Question about chronic constipation?
I'm a 20-year-old, otherwise healthy female but I have had chronic constipation for my whole life. As a child I was given every laxative you can think of by my pediatrician but they all made me feel worse than not being on them. At different points in time I was on mineral oil, miralax, metamucil powder and wafers, milk of magnesia liquid and chewable form, senekot, and I'm sure I'm leaving something out. All of this was treatment from both my pediatrician and a pediatric GI specialist when I was about 7 or 8. Anyway, I have a bowel movement once, sometimes twice a week and it's always very large, dark, and hard. It's embarrassing but it's too large to even be flushed and has to be broken up first. And even then, it still clogs the toilet fairly often. I drink water constantly and I try to eat extra fiber but fiber only makes me gassy and uncomfortable but does not help with the bowel movements at all. I am slightly overweight so I know it's not a malabsorption issue. My Grandfather had ulcerative colitis and my father has Chrone's Disease and he had colon cancer. Both the opposite of my symptoms. I'm getting frustrated with this. Does anyone have any advice?
Maternity Health Insurance and moving?
Cobra would be your best option or you could postpone your move until after the baby is born. Your husband is currently employed which is better than what he will be when you move. Jobs are hard to get so you need to be very careful now with the new responsibilities that come with parenthood.
Tons of negative test results? could i still be pregnant?
My older sister could not come up positive on a HPT till after she was three moths pregnant, and two weeks ago she gave birth to my beautiful healthy neice! Some women develope the HCG hormone slower then others, or develope the other hormones more then the HCG which could be deluting the tests. If your period doesn't show up here soon make a doctors appt for a blood tests. These seem to be much more accurate with very little fail! Lots of baby dust:)
8 weeks pregnant and constantly worrying?!?!?!?

ive been having headaches lately so i went to my medicine cabinet to get chewable tylenol and as soon as i put two in my mouth they fell apart and were moist. i put a pill between my fingers and it fell apart as well. i feel woozy and dizzy now, and this bottle of tylenol was purchased a week ago. any ideas? thanks
White spots after braces?
that's sign of demineralized enamel(outermost layer of tooth). enamel should have strong content of mineral so that it can protect tooth. but, if mineral get leaked out due to acid or plague that's not cleaned for some time, that area is prone to decay. sometimes, there is already decay under that whitish weakened enamel layer. i know it's hard to clean around bracket, but you should make sure you clean every corner.

Can vitamins cause heart palpitations?
I'm 17 and just started taking new vitamins and have some heart palpitations. I'm active, and pretty healthy overall. They worry me and I don't know why I'm getting them. Sometimes my heart beats faster when I've eaten a big meal too. I've been stressed out lately by friends and college plans, school work. What could be wrong and is this normal? Should I stop excercising and working my heart alot because I run about 4-5 times a week or should I increase excercise. Could the vitamins be causing them? I'm takingthe cvs chewable spectravite vitamins.

Ginger pills really work?!?
So i am going to an amusement park (six flags,magic mountain) and I heard that ginger helps nausea! I do not know what kind to get. Do I get the pills or the ginger root or the one you put into tea. I know that ginger is natural so I was thinking of taking some sort of ginger with 2 chewable Bonine. Does that sound good? Thank You! Oh and do I just swallow one pill like an hour before the ride? Answer all these questions and I will choose you for best answer. Include details and don't just say I think so or yes, Thanks :)
What kind of padding should I use for my dog's dog house?
I have a dogloo for my Golden Retriever and every padding I've put in it for him to sleep on, he has chewed up. I even put the supposedly non-chewable pad and it was gone in a few days. I spent about $60 on that too! I've tried carpet, but that's proven to be a health hazard. He not only chews on it, but it also gets stuck in this throat. It's getting cold now, so I'm out of ideas.

Talk to your doctor but I would say its ok, just because the baby is taking a lot out of you, you might need more energy or something for your body. Even though thats what prenatal's are for but they have different ensures.
Is this bad? Help please?
So I'm taking a multivitamin at the moment. And I was told I have to take a prenatal for the extra folic acid. Well I bough this thing of chewable prenatal. It says to chew 2 a day. I was thinking sense my multi vitamin has 100% of my folic acid and my prenatal it takes two of them to get 100% of what I need. There is only 60 prenatal so it would last me only 30 days. My question is wouldn't it be the same to take my multivitamin and just one chewable? It would save me money by making them last longer.
Concerned about my wife getting Amniocentesis test (please read)...?
the results are NOT 100%. The only reason you would consider doing the procedure is if you are the type of people that would terminate your child's life because they "might" have a medical condition. Defects of the brain and heart are better determined with the 20 week ultrasound and you have no risk of causing a miscarriage. My OB Doctor here in the US is required to offer the test, but they in no way recommend it because of it's inaccuracy. Your doctor will make a great deal of extra money by doing the test and that is probably the reason he is insisting.
Taking my prenatal pill.?
Im 3 1/2 months pregnant, and i know that it's very important to take my prenatal pills daily.

Does anyone have any other options besides the pill, or any advice on how i can take them without getting sick? thanks.
Prenatal vitamins - are they okay?
My cousin just had her baby and she had a ton of them left over that she gave to me. I've heard they're really good for your skin and hair, but is it okay to take them if you're not pregnant?
Before I call, just wondering if it's beneficial or a waste of my time, based on your experiences?
I would probably do two things in this situation. 1) Switch doctors!!!! He is needlessly scaring you and you don't need that!! Given what you have written, no reason yo need to automatically go with a c-section!! Find a doctor who seems to have a better bedside manner and who is more open to options. 2) Go with a midwife as well! They can be a great advocate for you on the delivery room and help you carry through with your wishes! I didn't realize they were covered here though - I think that may be a provincial thing?? What province are you in? Quebec? I believe they have really great policies on alternative care!! Best wishes!
How Beneficial Are Prenatal Classes?
I'm on baby number one. while i'm scared, i'm not. I helped my brother raise his two oldest daughters, he was 19 when he had the first, and almost 21 when he had the second, the mother abandoned him with both && i helped him with both his girls since their were babies until their were about 5. they were great birth control! :) but, since i've been pregnant, i've done lots of reading, lots of googling, and i'm just wondering how beneficial are prenatal classes? Have women taken them or not taken them, and what was the outcome?

Is my hair actually growing, I can't tell?
Over a year ago I cut all of the relaXer out of my hair. I wear it in micro-braids. When i re do my hair I wash it and it shrinks up, then i re-braid it. I take prenatal vitamins and every time I braid my hair it doesn't take long before the new growth is visible but when i take it out it is in the same shrunken afro so I can't see the difference. I haven't straightened my hair in a while. If I do will I see a difference? I'm positive that it grows while I have the braids in, I'm just curious as to why I see no difference in length. And please I know all about a relaxer, so save the horror stories for another question.

What can I do to prepare to get pregnant?
My husband and I are going to start trying to have a baby spring of next year. I fully plan on discussing everything with my doctor but what are some of the things you have done to prepare your body for pregnancy? How soon before trying to get pregnant did you start taking prenatal vitamins? Were they the ones over the counter or by prescription? I already cut my nightly glass of red wine out of my diet. I'm only going to drink wine on special occasions during the next year and obviously stop once I get closer to getting pregnant. I want to try to have the healthiest year I can to prepare my body. Is there anything else I can do besides eating healthy and exercising?
Are prenatal vitamins really necessary or is chewable OK?
I can't swallow large pills, and sometimes crushing or cutting up pills and mixing them in something tastes yucky. I can't imagine doing that for 9 mos!

I bought the Natrols brand vitamin c chewable tablets, and noticed on the back listed with the ingredients is fructose. I have heard from numerous sources that fructose is atrocious for you health, especially high fructose corn syrup. Is the fructose in my vitamin c tablet deletorious to my health?
Prednisolone and stomach pain in a six year old?
See another pediatrician. The prednisolone would have left her system by now, so it's probably not side effects from the meds but your daughter is obviously not doing well and the fact that the doctor you are seeing hasn't searched for something else says they may just not be paying attention.
I think my dog has a psychological problem, biting itself, help!?
Sadly, this may be a very rare case where the dog has such deep neurological issues, so many medical problems, and is causing so much damage to itself, that having her put to sleep may be best.
Can guinea pigs have vitamin C pills for humans?
The other answer is not true at all. Guinea pigs cannot store or produce their own vitamin C and cannot take it from the average healthy diet. The easiest way to get it to them is the drops that you add to their water. Human Vitamin C tablets could cause them an over dose.

Are these vitamins okay for my daughter?
If you go to the doctor during the first 24 hours of your flu symptoms they can give you Tamiflu, but that is not an antibiotic. Antibiotics won't do anything for the flu. I wouldn't worry about giving your daughter the vitamins. Your best bet is just to wash your and her hands frequently. She has already been exposed to your flu. She will either get it or not get it. Just make sure you keep yourself and her hydrated.
Could this be trapped gas?
Ok, this is kinda embarrassing... I just went to the bathroom (#2) and afterwards my stomach and back started hurting. I took two chewable pepto-bismal and I looked up trapped gas on the internet. The symptoms I read sound like mine but I still wanted to ask. And why would I have trapped gas if I just went to the bathroom?
What STDs were you tested for at your first prenatal visit?
I know I was tested for chlamydia, syphilis, and HIV. But do they test for herpes, or do you have to specifically request it? What all were you tested for? I never thought to ask my doctor because I was so focused on the results of the HIV test (I'm a paranoid woman)! I'm just asking out of curiosity, I'm 35wks pregnant and I don't suspect I have herpes lol. Just to make that clear!
Flintstones vitamins to supplement pre-natals?
Absolutely. My doctor actually told me to take the Flintstones vitamins if I couldn't take prenatals. She said a few of her patients had such bad morning sickness that they threw ip so much they would always throw up their pills. As long as it has enough Folic Acid, your set!! (:

Chewable Vitamins - Swallowable?
Took a vitamin chewable tablet today and swallowed it on accident and was wondering if its any different or doesn't have the same effect as if I had chewed it first even though its going to the same place chewed or not? I assume "Chewable" is just a guideline more so than a rule but I just wanted to see if anyone knew for sure?
NO JET LAG PILLS HOW DO I PROPERLY TAKE?
I purchased NO-JET LAG homeopathic jet lag prevention pills because I have a 16 hour non-stop direct flight coming up. Here is the issue. The box states to take one table at take-off and one tablet every 2 hours while flying and finally one after landing. My concern is how it will interrupt my trying to sleep on the plane? My flight is at 5:00pm so ideally I would like to stay awake until about 11:00pm and then try to nap or sleep. So if I were to take NO-JET-LAG chewable tablet, I am just afraid that it may keep me alert for much longer than anticipated as I would like to be able to fall asleep on plane since it is very difficult in itself to sleep on the plane I do not think that taking the tablet would make my situation better somehow??? What would you recommend the best way for me to do this since I would like to sleep on plane would it be better to just take one just during landing??? Let me know, I really would appreciate any advice or answers!!! :-)
My big dog ate half of my small dog's Nylabone (plastic/nylon chewable bone)...what should I do?
I gave both dogs appropriate size chew bones. When I got back, my 60lb dog had gotten a hold of my 10lb dog's bone and eaten half of it. The bones are made of plastic, nylon, and rubber and are hard. The directions say to call a vet, but it's late and I'm broke :( Should I wait it out, or take her to an emergency vet?

For the past couple of days I have noticed my urine is more dark and smelly then usual. My first thought was a UTI because I had one before a couple of years ago, but I had no pain when going.

Really tired, pregnant with twins?
So as expected I'm exhausted. I'm about 13 weeks, pregnant with twins, believe me I'm so excited but when does this extreme exhaustion end. I know some women get bursts of energy at some point in the pregnancy but is there anything that I can do so I can at least make it to the gym? I'm trying to stay in good shape through out my pregnancy so I can get back into shape after I have my babies. I don't want to take any pills. I already take my prenatal vitamins and everything, I get enough sleep, my husbands sort of worried, even though I know this is normal. Any advice would be nice.

My doctor also made me get blood work done prior to us trying to see if I was immune to chickenpox and rubella.

You will then need to get a booster shot before you try for a baby.

How probable is it that I am pregnant? Before answering, I already take prenatal vitamins. I have PCOS.?
So POAS isnt always accurate. I do not have insurance so getting a blood test is out. I am nauseous off and on, my breasts ache off and on but do not sting or tingle or anything. I have a low back ache and some cramping. I have heartburn and food aversions Ive never had. I have trouble sleeping at night and am moody according to my husband. I DO NOT PMS, EVER. I am asking primarily what the odds are I am pregnant or how many others have experienced the same symptoms and ended up pregnant? I have taken POAS but it is negative. Has anyone else experienced this?

You are foolish, foolish, foolish to move to another state without a job in hand. You will not be able to get insurance, so your best bet is to stay in FL until after the baby is born. Quitting your job will not make you eligible for emergency pregnancy coverage in most states.

21 weeks at first prenatal visit!?
I scheduled my first doctors visit when I was 12weeks and they gave me today. Which makes me 17weeks pregnant. I was in the wrong part if the hospital and when the front desk person told me I rushed over to where I was suppose to be but they informed me I was too late and they rescheduled me for march 11th.. I'll be 21wks by then. I want to know what all to expect and I really want to know if my baby is healthy and the gender! If they dont tell me then, I'll be about 25 wks when I find out and that's too close to my due date. I'd have no time to prepare. So should I expect an ultra sound? Can i call and schedule one to make sure? And what else happened on the first visit? First child and really nervous.

Gerbils chewing their water bottle, pissing me off.?
Like Kate says, get a bottle with a holder. I own a plastic bottle but it hangs over my tank with a metal bendable hook, cost only a couple bucks or so. If not, create something. Find leftover tools of some kind in our house and construct a sort of hook that will hold the bottle a few inches over the tank, but within fair reach so they can drink. They say you can train gerbils, but I find that hard to believe, especially when it comes to chewing and scratching. If you look online, I know you can find a good bottle with a holder to attach to your tank. Petlanddiscounts has a few good ones on their site and I Know other stores do to. In fact, where ever you buy your water bottles now should have them. Have you even tried mentioning this to them? They should easily be able to help...
Does anyone know some Pregnancy Meetup Groups in Syria?

Im 18 and cannot get pregnant. :(?
hey girl. I am 19, going on twenty. And my fiance and I have been trying for almost a year to get pregnant. I understand your reasonings for wanting to get pregnant. I had a miscarraige in July, and ever since, I have wanted to be a mother more than anything in the world. About your negative tests, I have read that some people have been pregnant and not produced a positive HPT for up to ten weeks! If I were you, I would go to your Gynocologist and have them run a blood test and talk to them about it. Unfortunately, getting pregnant is a miracle in itself, all of the odds have to be JUST SO for a pregnancy to occur. Stress can definitely make it hard to get pregnant, also. Good Luck, and Baby Dust to you**** Dont listen to people bring you down about your age either. GOD knows what is right for you. And he will give you your baby in his perfect timing. Im getting married in May, and I am nineteen. We are trying to start our family, also. Its all about what is right for YOU and YOUR life and YOUR future baby's life. Negative opinions dont matter!

I have palmers cocoa butter formula with vitamin E and i wanted to know how much i should put on, what time of day i should put it on and how often i should put it on?

Why would my husband lie about me? how should i feel?
ok like i conceived in early june of 2010 and he got back from deployment at the beginning of may and he went to the doctors with me to get the pregnancy test to my ob registration and wet to all of my prenatal appointments he wasn't there for the ultrasound because he was at PTA but the ultrasound photos dated 10-18-2010 but i went back home to visit family for the holidays i left end of november which would have made me well into my pregnancy i came back on new years day and just recently a friend of his brought it to my attention that he said he even showed me the texts and forwarded them to me that he didn't know i was pregnant until i got off the plane new years day.... and that i told him that i didn't know if it was his or not...which is another lie...Why would someone who is supposed to love me say things like that i brought it to his attention last night and he denied ever saying it but yet i have the text messages to prove that he did and i am sure it was him because the texts that i was shown and forwarded came from his number... idk how to even begin to feel abut this
Maternity Health Coverage when moving?
If he doesnt work there any more and you do not buy COBRA, then you will not continue to have insurance, however, if he gets another job with insurance, you most likely will be able to get on it right away as insurance usually does not discriminate against pregnant women and pregnancy is usually not considered a pre-existing condition

Does anyone have any suggestions on how to get a stubborn cat to eat a chewable pill?
you said its too big for her to swallow whole? can you break it up and make it easier to swallow? like break it into small pieces, put it in her mouth, gently hold her mouth closed (make sure you dont block her nose so she can breathe) and stroke her throat/neck causing her to swallow.. its hard to explain, im not saying be cruel to your cat. its almost the same technique as if you were to give her liquid medication.

Thats really normal to have dreams about something being wrong with your baby. I've had that all 4 kids, and every one I had a dream. They're all perfectly fine now, my oldest being 13. Of course I didn't drink or smoke... that may have effected your baby.

it could be your body telling you to take it easy. usually cramping in early pregnancy is normal, as long as it isn't accompanied by any bleeding then you probably aren't miscarrying. just try not to stress and take it easy!
Why R Pepcid AC Chewable not available?
My friend who works in a pharmacy told me that there gonna be Pepcid shortage soon. Not only of Pepcid AC Chewable ones, which, you're right, were recalled, but also of regular Pepcid (Famotidine) tablets. They are not produced anymore cause plant was closed by FDA. I have already purchased generic brand version of Pepcid available in UK - Famot & Nocid. These brands are manufactured by a different company, a href="http://pompharmacy.com/buy-pepcid-usa.html" rel="nofollow"http://pompharmacy.com/buy-pepcid-usa.ht…/a

14 week pregnant and anemia. can i take the prenatal vitamin and iron pill together?
they both leave a bad taste, prenatal vitamin has an after taste or smell of fish oil and iron also leaves a very bad after taste for hours. at week 8 i had low iron, so nurse told me to take both these but separately and i tried for a few weeks but i feel so sick afterwards that i stopped taking both. now i'm feeling dizzy/ black out today. could it be because of anemia? does anyone else take both and do you take both the pills together?
What kind of vitamins have hard shells?
My stomach has a hard time handling soft pills such as Motrin and One-a-Day vitamins. Such pills usually move me to diarrhea or loose bowels. There's a lot of nutrients missing from my diet since I'm lactose intolerant and generally don't eat any dairy I can handle. I also can generally use the extra vitamins that taking a vitamin supplement can give you, but I can't handle most vitamin brands that I've tried, what brand of vitamins are hard-shelled? Will chewable effect me the same way soft pills do?
Are there chewable or liquid birth control.?

Lightheaded, dizzy, blurred vision, HELP!?
I have been getting extremely bad headaches off and on for about 3-4 years. Recently, they've become more frequent and I've also been getting extremely lightheaded, dizzy, blurred vision, increased heartbeat, inability to stand on my own, feeling faint, and other symptoms like these. Anyone have any ideas of what could be wrong with me? I think I might not be getting enough sun, or maybe not enough calcium. I was thinking either vitamin D deficiency or I may be anemic. I've seen a doctor and they can't seem to figure it out either. Maybe it's just anxiety?! Who knows... Help :/
Vitamin B-12 for building muscle and dosage?
I'm working out to build muscle and I've heard B-12 is a good aid in this. Is this true? And how much do I take? Because the complex has 15mcg but I see supplements that have like 5,000mcg so I'm confused about a healthy dosage.

I am employed but on unemployment due to lack of hours. But Im being treated unfairly. Help please?
I had 5 shifts a week with was about 25-30 hours. I found out I was pregnant and told my managers. They then cut my shifts to one. I worked it the first week, but the next I had been throwing up from the iron in my prenatal vitamins which were perception, and wasn't able to go in. But I did call in. The next week they took me off the schedule completely and for a month, that is until they found out I had filed for unemployment. Now they put me on the schedule for two shifts and told me I had to ether quit or get fired, which would ether would cancel my unemployment. I am not able to work only a few shifts a week. I need to have 25-30 hours in safe working conditions to pay for my living expenses. So, now I am unsure what I should do. I know Im being treated unfair, but I have no idea how to go about all this. Any advice?

How do I get my bird to play?
my parakeet is not normal. He doesn't play. I put up a videocam close to his cage and all day he sat on his perch. I have plenty of interesting toys in his cage, but all he seems to do is sit in one Spot and climb down to eat his food. Any advice? I have spoken with a vet, and they said nothing was wrong. I have all the different types of toys in his cage (chewable mirrors rings etc.) any advice?
When will I get another ultrasound?!?
most of the time unless you are a high risk pregnancy or your OB/GYN believes that there maybe something wrong then you may not have any more ultrasounds. If you want to have another one before the baby comes there are free standing clinics that you can make an appointment with and they can do a 3D or 4D ultrasound and sometimes they even have viewing rooms for family and friends to view from another room as well while you are having it done. It usual is around $300-$600 per ultrasound and your allowed so many photos as well as a DVD of the ultrasound !
How much is too much Vitamin C?
There's an outbreak of a virus at my college right now, so I've been loading up every day with Vitamin C. Today I was planning on taking 3g of Vitamin C via Airborne, orange juice, and then a chewable tablet to Vitamin C (not sure of the dosage). Are they any harmful effects of taking too much Vitamin C?

I ate yesterday and took my vitamins but walked a little more than usual. I dont know if its morning/night sickness or what, this is my first pregnancy. I camt wven fall asleep because I feel sick. Opinions? (my hubby felt nauseated last night as well)
For women who are allergic to iodine and shell fish did you use a special prenatal vitamin also do you know?
anything about Vitafol---is it good?
I am planning on drinking tonight.. Couple questions. ?
Eat carbs before going out, i.e., pasta, bread, potatoes (nothing fried), then go out and enjoy yourself, but DON'T DRIVE IF YOU'RE GOING TO DRINK (just the "mom" in me...) Also, never MIX what you're drinking, meaning, if you start drinking vodka & tonics, don't switch over to gin & tonics or wine or beer...keep to the exact same alcoholic drink that you started with; believe me, it ain't pretty the next day. And, one last thing: take two Tylenol or Ibuprophen BEFORE going to sleep - I promise you that you will NOT wake up with a headache at all...and remember to always wash off all your make-up before bedtime. :-) Hope this helps, because it did for me in my "partying" days!
I am a "stocker upper....", but when is enough is enough?
Not at all. I bulk buy too where i can, as it makes life easier. When you have four young children under the age of two, even with a car, you can't just nip to the shops to buy milk. Going to the shops is a practically military planned operation. I have a pantry just off my kitchen, and i make sure it's fully stocked with everything. If we ever can't go out, my babies will never want for anything, and thats the main thing.
Is it safe to give my 15lb dog Children's Chewable Orange Flavored Aspirin?

How much food should I put down for my dog each day?
He's about a 10-15 pound Schnauzer in that range. His diet is mainly Hamburger, Chicken, or sausage I coook with brown rice and occasionally mix carrots, potatoes and other vegetables in with the meat. I give him a large bowl full everyday and he always acts hungry. I don't want to over feed him, keep in mind he's a hyper dog and gets to run around. I'm just curious because I have to drive about 50 miles 100 miles round trip to see a veterinarian. So he's only been there twice in 3 years. I give him comfortis chewable for fleas so he has no fleas or ticks. Any suggestions?

Will I Grow Taller? Please read my situation and feel free to give any input!?
you grow as tall as your genetic make up allows. you are probably as tall as you'll ever be. there's nothing you can do to grow taller. see if your height was recorded when you were 2 or 3 years old. that should be half your adult height. why don't you just take one multivitamin? you're taking so many, they can't all be good taken together.
What would you do, if you were me?
I am not a woman with low self-esteem, I am just asking what would you do if you were me. I am married and pregnant, and my husband left me in early pregnancy. He keeps asking if we can work on our marriage, and twice now he has sabataged it on his own. When we were together, I was going to University. He didn't want me to work at all. I did get a part time job to cover my tuition, which I had to use on my living expensives as he left. I can not get student loans as of now because they will go off his income (And he makes a fair amount). I lost my job and I know it was because I am pregna=nt, but very hard to prove. No one would hire me because I am pregnant, so I was left with no choice but to go on Social Assistance. He has not helped me out at all with any prenatal care, gas for appointments, vitamins, clothing or needs for the baby. Social assistance does not give much money at all and they do not cover these expenses. He texts me in the middle of the night(I use my cell 4 my alarm), he still blames me for everything that went wrong in our relationship. He drinks all of the time, and lives with two guys who are not stand up at all. He asked me the other night if we could try work it out. would you try if you were me? I am on the no side because this pregnancy has been very stressful because of him. He was hoping I would get on Social Assistance....if he loved me why would he want me to live below the poverty line. He was going to kill himeseIf and I had to phone the police. They found him drunk and that was about 1 1/2 months after he left me. I had so much going for me and now it is all gone. In time I will get it back, but I am not young. i am 35 yrs old. I was tired of working the crappy jobs and that is why I decided to go back to school, to get a decent career. I also have a 12 yr old daughter, who has never had to live like this. I have always been able to provide for her on my own, and buy her the things she needs. Advice is really needed. Thank-you in advance.

What can I do to prepare to get pregnant?
My husband and I are going to start trying to have a baby spring of next year. I fully plan on discussing everything with my doctor but what are some of the things you have done to prepare your body for pregnancy? How soon before trying to get pregnant did you start taking prenatal vitamins? Were they the ones over the counter or by prescription? I already cut my nightly glass of red wine out of my diet. I'm only going to drink wine on special occasions during the next year and obviously stop once I get closer to getting pregnant. I want to try to have the healthiest year I can to prepare my body. Is there anything else I can do besides eating healthy and exercising?
What do I have to do to stop my acne?
I've always had clear smooth acne free skin until last summer I've become prone to acne due to Biotin vitamins and a eye shadow I tried and it broke me out and since than I now have mild acne.Due to the breakout with the eyeshadow and it cleared up it left me with Ice pick scarring on my cheeks they aren't deep but they are there,I don't want to stress out and break down because I now have mild acne and scarring but I'm getting close I just miss not worrying about my having acne and having to use a prescribed acne topical lotion everyday.Is there anyway I can cure my acne prone skin and not have it? Is there any treatments my dermatologist can give me to remove the scarring? Help please I just don't want to worry about acne again.

Does it matter if you take more than one prenatal vitamin in a day?
No you are fine nothing will happen! I swear I probably do it and dont even know it.
Is my shampoo good for my hair?
Well we don't really know about your hair, but I'd recommend that shampoo to people with hair that needs to be washed daily and is usually a bit greasy or oily. Your hair is probably on the straighter side because this shampoo wouldn't work for curls. I keep a bottle of the shampoo at home and use it once a month to get rid of all my product buildup, but this would dry my hair out like crazy if I used it on a regular basis!
I need people who only know what they are talking about when it comes to a healthy diet?
that's an awful diet I am surprised that you have the energy to exercise and I doubt your exercise is very intense or you would be permanently hungry , there isn't enough protein or minerals in the diet for someone your size
Where can I get affordable health insurance that will cover prenatal care?
I am having a baby and need better health insurance. My current plan only covers after 80% and thats only after 5000 dollars. I have Humana One. We want to get married so it would be for me and him plus the baby. I have been reading horror stories about people having to pay 1000 a month for a young couple and a baby.
Anyone else have this problem?
I am 18 weeks pregnant with my second child. With my first child I didn't find out I was pregnant until I was around 18 or 19 weeks. I had lost around 15 to 20 lbs before I found out with him. This pregnancy I am losing weight all over again. I think (not 100% sure because they didn't write my weight down the first visit) that I have lost around 10- 15 lbs already again. I am eating, and even when I don't feel hungry I force myself to eat anyways. The first several weeks I had bad problems with nausea that kept me from eating a lot, but that has passed. Has anyone had this problem? (I'm preparing myself for my doctor to yell at me) If you have, what did your doctor tell you to do? Noah came out fine and that was with me not taking prenatals for the first 18 weeks. I take Prenate Plus prenatal vitamins and also another prenatal that contains DHA, so I'm not hurting for a lot of the vitamins. Anyone with ideas to help me gain the weight? Thanks for your help!

Awkward question...might be TMI?
Do you take any narcotic pain relievers for the post c section pain? You say it has been 5 weeks, so I suspect you aren't taking them anymore. These medications can cause bowel abnormalities..mostly the constipation and hard stool. Is the blood in your stool bright red or dark? If it is bright red, then it is related to the stress of going to the bathroom, if it is dark, then it is from your stomach and will require attention of a doctor. Try to eat plenty of fiber, drink plenty of water, get as much exercise (of course gentle exercises like walking) if you are still feeling a little sore. If you continue to have pain and abnormal stools, I would recommend calling your gynecologist or family doctor about your symptoms. You did just have major surgery so don't let your symptoms go too long before you get them checked out by a professional. I hope it resolves quickly! Good Health!

Opinions? (my hubby felt nauseated last night as well)
Has any teens out there used prenatal vitamins to make there hair grow or improve skin if so did it work?
Just get a good multimineral vitamin supplement, pre natal vitamins are loaded with iron which is toxic, in the forms they use, iron is in every food you eat, and many babies are born with vitamin E deficiencies because of these prenatal vitamins, I am totally against taking iron it is in every food you eat, and most anemias are not from a lack of iron but from a lack of your B-vitamins.To improve your skin, stop using soap, leave the natural oils on your skin, only use soap once in a great while, take showers rather than baths, so you don't get all that bleach on your skin, putting manayse on your hair and leaving it on with a towel wrapped around your head for 20 minutes is great for your hair.
Is it okay to take 5 different vitamins (over the counter) a day without doctors approval?

Using spoiled soy milk in baking?
I wouldn't be trying that...the chances of food poisoning increase a lot with spoiled food, that's why they call it "spoiled". Even if you got away with it once, doesn't make it safe.

Bruising for no reason?
I've discovered about 10 bruises on my body in the past week or so, that I didn't get from any physical injury or impact, and more just keep cropping up. I've also been feeling feverish and tired a lot lately (plus I've just gotten over a really bad respiratory infection). It's really gross; it looks terrible when I want to expose my arms or legs. What could be causing this? Is there a vitamin that can help?
Will this make my hair longer?

Sharp pains in my pelvic area.... please read?
sounds like they are just pains from your uterus growing and stretching...every pregnancy is different though. it could also be braxton-hicks contractions...which are nothing to worry about. if it worries with you, it can't hurt to check with your doctor.
My mother gave me these little?
chewable tablets called Flintstones vitamins. Were these safe, for me to consume back then as a child? I just hate pills in generally.
Prenatal flinstones chewables. help?
I don't have a link but many women do take 2 flinstones(that will have the recommended folic acid you'll need). Be sure not to get a gummy,most don't contain iron which you need especially during pregnancy. I don't no what the uk has to offer but I take natachew prenatal,its a script covered by my insurance. I also no target sells a grownup chewable prenatal. I'm sure in the uk there's a comparable childrens vitamin to our flinstones vitamin?
Should I trust my gut and?
We've been trying for almost a year now but not consecutive months. I have tried unsuccessfully for 11months with a few months (that ARE NOT counted in the 11months) where my husband was out of town. Plus, we did not use condoms or BC for YEARS before we officially said we are "trying". I believe we may be having issues conceiving but I know what the doctors are going to say..."wait for 12 solid months". But a woman knows her own body. Also, my mom (God rest her soul) had problems conceiving with me and my brother. Her and my dad tried for 10 years and then she had to have surgery before having us. I'm also worried because my husband and I had a lot of issues with sex (I had feminine issues where it was painful to have sex at all...kept getting diagnosed with yeast infections but it was my hormone levels that was causing the pain/itching). Im super worried that the meds they put me on may have altered my hormones too much or something but Im not taking them anymore.... smh. Either way, my question is should I trust my gut and go to the fertility specialist given my history. For the total amount of time (we've barely ever used condoms in the 5 years we've been together...not married but since we started dating 5 years ago) and still no pregnancy at all...And I have taken prenatal vitamins for years now! Its depressing....day in, day out taking vitamins and....no baby.

Similarities between the aim of American junk food and American junk religion?
Have you noticed when you eat a hamburger from McDonald’s or any of the other infamous American junk food outlets, you don’t have to chew the bread? It kind of just dissolves in your mouth, right? That’s not normal; bread should be chewable. So this indicates the aim of American junk food is to profit off people’s laziness; people are too lazy to even chew their food. Since all American junk concepts seek to profit off of people’s weaknesses, how do American junk religions like Mormons, Pentecostals, Jehovah’s Witnesses etc, make their profit? Is it with dogma that doesn’t have to be chewed?

Why do republicans bash Michelle Obama so much?
She wasn't elected and has no political power. Her only connection to politics is that she's married to the president. I hated George W Bush, but never did I slander Laura Bush, nor did anyone else who disagreed with Bush's policies. I don't remember republicans bashing Hillary as much as they bash Michelle. What has she said that has drawn so much ire? Eat you veggies, take your vitamins, go to school, say your prayers? No one bashed Hulk Hogan in the 1980's when he said the same thing.

I am about 16 weeks pregnant and have had no prenatal care, and haven't told my dad. How do I tell him?!?

Oh and on top of the pregnancy I don't want the dad to be involved in the babies life, and the only reason is because he denies it! Please help me!! I know I need to tell him soon cause being 4 months pregnant and have had no prenatal care is not good for the baby!! I'm lucky and don't have morning sickness, but all the females in my family didn't have it!! But just please help me!! Thanks!!!

Is it safe to drink kool aid while pregnant?

Where would I listen to the baby's heartbeat?
I bought a prenatal heart listener, but I don't know where to put it in order to hear the heart. Does anyone know where? Like try using the belly button as a reference to where :)
Is this pill okay for me?
there are many different forms of vitamin supplements. Try another brand. Or maybe it's too heavy for your stomach. I took one a day for teen girls and i gave up on that because it started making my stomach upset. But then again, i never ate proper meals when swallowing it as i should have :/

How should I do this?
I just bough D-Worm COMBO Flavored Chewable for my dogs to eat. But I don't really know whether I should give them only once or many times. In the dosing table, they say that dogs weigh from 6.0 to 12.0 pounds should be given 1 and they don't say I should give more. So I think I only have to give them once, but I heard many other brands make us to give dogs twice or even three times. And btw, how long will the worms be gone and are they killed in the dog's stomach or it will be pushed out?
Pregnancy vitamins. cannot swallow tablets. please help?

Did I pass fetal tissue?
I had my first prenatal appointment yesterday at 10 weeks and 1 day, and the heart was beating strong and I could see my baby moving around on the ultrasound. The doctors told me it was a healthy baby. I went to pee in a public toilet a few hours later, and I just glanced and saw that someone had used it before me, but I didn't care, because I had to pee. When I looked down, I saw strange yellow/whitish flakes. I don't know if I passed them, or if someone had perhaps dumped cereal in the toilet or something? (I live in a dorm, it's not totally, uncommon, lol). My doctor's office is closed for the weekend, so I can't call them, but I didn't experience any pain or bleeding. Is this anything to worry about? Especially considering it was a mere few hours after my baby was deemed healthy? I'm really worried, but I've been worrying about everything lately.
Prenantal Vitamins make me feel so ill?
Taking them before bed might be ok becuase you might sleep through the sickness, but hten again, you might end up being awake all night feeling sick. Your best bet is to take them with a large meal, that should help. You might want to try a different brand too.

I chewed five 81 mg chewable low dose aspirins then instantly after wards swallowed a 200mg regular dose advil. I have severe menstrual cramps and after taking the aspirin I realized it wouldn't be a strong enough pain reliever that is why I also took the advil.

I CAN'T SWALLOW PILLS!?
I am 15 years old and find it a little embarrassing that I can't perform a simple task of swallowing an Advil Liqui-Gel. Before you begin listing methods and tricks that will help me, I just want to let you know that I have tried MANY things with no luck. Whenever I am prescribed medicine, I have to awkwardly ask the doctor if I can get that pill as a chewable. I am tired of this and need to find a method that will help me and end this once and for all! Please help!

20 weeks pregnant with no prenatal care. Kind, helpful words, please!?
Hi, I am 17 and I just found out that I am around 20 weeks pregnant. I have not had an appointment yet, my first one is this week. Is it possible that I got lucky and my baby will be healthy?

Any helpful words?
Is it ok to take prenatal vitamin & iron every other day instead of daily?
i'm 13 weeks pregnant. 5 weeks ago, doc told me to take prenatal vitamin PNV-DHA. i had not started taking it yet when my blood test showed i had low Iron, so the nurse called and told me to have Iron supplement FEOSOL daily. she never told me what dosage of Iron to take. anyway i got 45mg tabs. i started taking them both daily but i noticed that its making me feel very weird all day whenever i take them both on the same day. so i started taking them on consecutive days. do you think its ok to do so? both of these leave a bad metallic taste in my mouth all day, especially when i take them on the same day. what should i do?
4 months preg, boyfriend wont talk about it?
"It feels like i'll pretty much be a single mom."...Sorry to say it, but that would be my guess as well. And, frankly, you and the baby will probably be better off that way.

Prenatal Vitamins Question (:?
I had my first appointment today! I'm only five weeks two days so there wasn't much to see on my ultraSound but I saw my gestational sack and my yolk sack, and she said she saw a little flutter in my baby's heart! (since I'm still so early) Okay that had nothing to do with my question, I'm just so excited! Okay now about the prenatals. Is there a certain limit to how many you can take in a certain time? Like how you can only take 2 Tylenol every 4-5 hours? I read the back of the bottle and it warned about iron overdose. I took one around four when I got them and i planned on taking another in the morning (when I plan to take them everyday). But do I have to take them like 24 hours apart? Omg I'm ranting! Okay sorry (: Thanks for your help!

Very nervous about upcoming ultrasound. Help please?
Try not to stress out because stress hurts the baby too. Just try to distract yourself from these thoughts with hobbies or chores. Hopefully the baby is fine.
I'm pregnant:D!! I need advice...?
RELAX =) sleep when your tired, eat when your hungry, stay hydrated, eat right. Remeber your pregnant and its a lot of work so there is no such thing as eating or sleeping to much.

Its better to call and look like an idiot then to not call and have something be wrong, like i like to say better safe then sorry.

Should I get the liquid or dried elderberry extract- is one better or different (Sambucol brand)?
This Sambucol comes in different forms, and of course the chewable tablets containg the dried extract is more convenient. But then there is the liquid form, which you store in the fridge, and contains the liquid elderberry extract. The amounts of extract are also differnt, i dont know why. Can anyone help please??
Waiting for Natural Miscarriage- What to expect?
According to my last menstrual period, my pregnancy was about 11.5 weeks along. We went in to the dr feb 4th for our first prenatal check up, couldnt find a heartbeat. So they sent us down for an ultrasound. The tech said everything was measuring at 9.5 weeks, no heartbeat and we actually could not see a baby. The tech said the baby could be behind the placenta. The dr sent me home, said it could take awhile and to call when bleeding begins. Basically I dont know what to expect as far as a natural miscarriage goes bc i dont know if it's possible that a baby couldnt ever really begin to develop but the amniotic sac and placenta can? Today while eating out i felt extra wet down there so i went to the bathroom to check, there was an oily off white/tannish color of liquid in my underwear. This is not my first pregnancy so I smelled it and it definitely smelled like amniotic fluid. Im almost positive that my "water broke" but still no bleeding and not much cramping or pain. Will i pass tissue as if there was a baby in there, is it possible to just pass the amniotic sac and placenta like a baby never developed? I have no idea what to expect here and on top of that I have to work tomorrow and Im not sure if its wise to work when I know a miscarriage is pending and in the very near future.

Has Anyone Ever Ordered Supplements From Vitamin Resource?
I have never heard of VItamin source and if you cant find anything about them they probably arent something that has been around long enough (tested). Im not saying they are bad but when it comes to your health i would not take the risk, all my health related things i order from Nutrilite, they have been around for 75 years is all organic and you can look it up, with a brand like that i have peace of mind, I recomend you look for another source other than that one, something known and tested

Flintstones vitamins to supplement pre-natals?
I have been taking prenatals while I was trying to concieve and then while I was pregnant. Im 4 months now and I recently ran out of my prenatals. I have bad anxiety with pills and cannot swallow big ones. When I bought new prenatals they were too big for me to swallow. I cant find the kind I had before. I know it sounds pathetic, I know in my head i wont choke but I cant swallow them. I know my baby needs its vitamins, so I want to know is it okay to take my sons chewable flintstones vitamins until I can find a prenatal I can swallow. The flintstones say to take 1 for kids and 2 for adults. I already purchased multiple prenatals trying to find small ones. I am still looking. So is this safe until I find sufficient ones?

What to expect without check up at 23 weeks?
Due to lack of insurance and other things I have not been able to see a doctor. Calculating from my last period I found out I'm 23 weeks pregnant and I haven't been in to see a doctor at all. I have been taking prenatal vitamins, and eating pretty good, but I'm afraid of what I have already done to my baby for not being seen by a doctor. I have an appointment to see a doctor tomorrow but I'm looking for some in fo before i see him tomorrow. Please if there are any doctors on here that could give me some information that would be great. I don't need any criticism or negative input on what a bad mother I am, so if that's all you have to say, save it. Please Help.
What do i need to do to make my hair stop breaking mid shaft?
Well first I will tell you that grad school is the main contributing factor to stressful hair loss. Try a heavy leave-in conditioner but if you can't afford that then try using mayonnaise about an hour before you shower and don't towel dry because that pulls hair out too; just wrap it with towel and let it dry naturally. You should see some improvement in a short amount of time.
Why do i go to a midwife for prenatal visits?
Midwifes are like specialized ob nurses. It has nothing to do with home birthing. She will be very informative and helpful. A midwife can deliver a baby but it depends on the plan that you make. You can have them as a labor coach in the hospital while a doctor delivers if you want.
Do prenatal pills help you get pregnant faster?

Are there any un-chewable pens?
I have a really bad habit of biting my pens - I don't know I am doing it until I have basically eaten the cap off. Its really embarrassing, especially if I have to lend someone a pen. So my question is - is there a pretty much indestructible pen on the market that I won't be able to chew on? Thanks guys :)

My 4 year old keeps sneaking into things?
She just started Pre k this year and she had some problems with going at first. She would cry an didn't want to stay, then she wanted to go an stay but she didn't want to come home. Now shes fine she goes to school and she comes home but she's started sneaking into everything she sneaks into the bathroom and into my bedroom and gets ahold of my jewelry and hair ties an she got ahold of my chewable gas tabs on my night stand in the morning she snuck in my room an didn't wake me up (she used to wake me up and mind you she wakes up at 6am) and ate 3 of them luckily that was all that was left! I'm getting close to just homeschooling her so she stops picking up these kids bad habits. Has anyone gone through this? is it a stage? are there better ways to discipline her that don't require hitting I've tried time outs an taking things away i've tried talking to her at her level and telling her mommy don't like when she sneaks into stuff but she just continues to do it I am a stay at home mom so she's getting plenty of time with me so I don't think it's her trying to get attention we do everything go to the library, parks, zoo, museums...(ect.)
Why do they depend on ultra sounds?
I went to the hospital today since I thought my water broke last night. I got pregnant May 16 2010. The doctors say my due date is March 13 2011. My last period was April 28 2010. I got on a pregnancy calculator and according to my last period my due dat was supposed to be Febuary 2 2011. They told me they don't go by last periods they go by how big the baby is. What if my child is just like a runt or he is smaller than usual babies? How big is an "average" baby? So do I have to chance that I really am only 35 weeks and then have him go overdue and die because the doctors are idiots? Im just really frusterated. Why do doctors make you feel like your the worst person in the world for not getting prenatal care because I didn't have the money or because when I signed up for Medicaid they ****** around with me my whole pregnancy and no doctor would see me? Am I wrong? Please don't be rude I just don't understand why Im getting ****** around. And since when did you have to schedule to be induced. I know Im 41 weeks and 1 day. I have counted every single day since I found out. My periods are were like clockwork thats how I found out so fast. I wasn't even a month pregnant when I found out.
Are prenatal vitamins necessary?

All about growth: Can you mentally tell your brain to make your body begin to grow taller?
lol No you can't tell yourself to grow taller. 5'8 sounds tall, but you might get alittle taller by your self. Do you drink alot of coffee? I heard that makes you shrink, but i dont know if it's true =)
Iron during the first 13 weeks of pregnancy?
She wouldn't have prescribed it if it wasn't ok. But to be on the safe side, ask her, her nurse or a pharmacist. Sometimes, the potential benefits of a drug can outweigh the risks and the DR will say it's ok.
What is wrong with my wisdom tooth extract? Sharp pain after a week!?
I got my impacted, lower, right wisdom tooth removed last Saturday. Today is Monday and I am still in pain. I think i may have a dry socket but I am not sure. On the day of, I was spitting constantly because my throat was super sore and I was bleeding profusely and did not want to swallow it. My dentist gave me very poor Post-Op instructions it wasn't until I did research that I knew i wasn't supposed to spit. I also ate on the way home from the dentist. I was ignorant to how serious my procedure had been. I wasn't given any antibiotics but I was put on percocet. I didn't take any days off from work but I did reduce to only eating non chewable foods. On Wednesday not only was I still in pain, my pills ran out. I called my dentist because everyone was saying that I should be better by now. He says that my case was severe and my tooth was right on the nerve and that i should be in pain and if I don't get better in 3 weeks then I should come in. He gave me antibiotics and 600mg Motrin. I have been putting clove oil to help deal with the pain, I do rinse my mouth with salt water twice a day after brushing. Today is Monday, a week and 2 days after surgery and I am just sick of the pain. My pain isn't exactly on the extraction site its more along my jaw bone and surrounding teeth. Should I listen to the dentist and wait? What could possibly be wrong? Normally, I would just get a second opinion but I don't longer have health insurance so I need to do at home treatments since I paid for the extraction out of pocket. HELP!

Pregnant with Gallbladder Issues...Can't keep food down, can't have it taken out!!! HELP!?
I found out I had to have my gallbladder out in July, I was losing weight and having right side pain. Well, on the day of my Pre Op I found out I was pregnant. Now I was supposed to have it taken out at the beginning of my second trimester, but unfortunetly my husband put me on his insurance during open enrollment ( I no longer qualified for my state insurance) and now I have to wait till January before I can have it done, if they will even do it that late! I can't keep food down, I have gained 5lbs none the less since becoming pregnant, but other than crackers, dry toast, and dry cereal etc I can't eat. I sometimes can't keep down juice either. I know in the beginning of pregnancy it is ok to go without much food, but what about now? I am 15 weeks along and I don't know how well my baby can be doing without much food, I do take a chewable vitamin everyday since I throw up the prenatals.........I am so lost, and I don't know what can happen.

How long before getting pregnant did you start taking prenatal vitamins?
I had two ectopic pregnancy two years apart. I was not even on any prenatal vitamins. Ectopic pregnancy is caused by a blockage of the tube. Like scar tissue or if you had an infection and it left scar tissue. I was told that my right tube was damaged so I had to make sure I was trying to get pregnant on the left side. You see one month you ovulate on the right and the next month you ovulate on the left. I had six kids. I didn't take any prenatal vitamins with my first three kids, I could not afford them. Back then they didn't have the programs for prenatal care like they do now. My kids were born healthy. My last three I did take prenatal vitamins.

Ever had a negative blood test, and 5 positive hpts, than found out later you were pregnant?
I am currently 11 days late for my period, last week I took 3 home pregnancy tests (two different brands) and got a positive on all three, so Monday I went to the Doctor and got a blood test done - it came back negative. That night, I took another hpt - positive again. Then last night (roughly 36 hours after the negative blood test) I took ANOTHER hpt, and got ANOTHER positive - and this time it showed up even faster and even darker. Has ANYONE ever had this happen? PLEASE, I really need some type of insight. The nurse told me to come back in two weeks, but I really just want some idea as to whether I am pregnant or not. I am still experiencing several pregnancy symptoms, and still testing positive on hpts, but that negative blood test is worrying me so much. I started taking prenatal vitamins today, because I would rather be safe than sorry, but does anyone have any helpful advice? Thanks so much!
