I was on Elevit until last week when the box ran out. They made me feel sick and I have a couple of friends with babies who both said it's a rip off. A good friend who's a Dr said that a lot of Elevit babies she's come across are quite big at birth - although she's not sure it's strictly down to Elevit as such but is kind of interesting.
Am now just on normal old folic acid and would consider a multi if the mw suggests it but dont see the need unless I'm lacking in something
I was on Elevit for about a week but as my MW pointed out to me if you have a healthy diet then you shouldn't need to take one.
I am not a meat eater, well I eat chix and fish and was not overly concerned about my diet, my bloods were always great, and the placenta when delivered was a healthy size and looked like it would have continued feeding DD for another 2weeks or so. So not necessary imo
I just took Folic acid while TTC and until about 19 weeks (when the bottle ran out) - cheap as chips on prescription from the GP. I got given some of that Thompsons Pregnancy multi but couldnt swallow it without puking until a couple of weeks ago and even now am just taking it when I remember - I figure I eat pretty well so no real need. So far no issues with iron etc (am now 29 weeks).
