I'm taking Naturemade Prenatals with DHA.

The only risk from hair dye that I've read about is the fumes. If you're in a well ventilated area, you should be safe. I'm not sure about bleach and if some dyes are better than others. I dyed mine with Manic Panic recently, because I have a big bleached chunk that looks absolutely ridiculous if I don't keep it dyed. It's supposed to be a safer dye overall, but I don't think they do regular natural colors. Just keep in mind, hairdressers have babies, too, and they don't quit their jobs as soon as they get pregnant.

I take a gmo free prenatal that is also a probiotic. I can't for the life of me remember it's name! Has purple on the label lol. It's just expensive, $30+ for a bottle that'll last a month.

Hope everything is ok, hope it's not ectopic!

I take Centrum prenatal right now, plus an additional 4mg of folic acid (for a total of 5) because I'm on some Class C meds. I think I may switch to Jameson prenatal after this bottle because I hear they're better? I really don't know I just asked my pharmacist and that's what they recommended.

 

[MegNE922]

I'm just taking a reg prenatal. target brand. It's comparable to centrum. As for hair dye my girlfriends are hair dressers and they both did their hair while they were preggo. I think it really is just the fumes.

Happenstance I'll be thinking of you! Everything crossed for you.

I try to distract myself with something to do. Yesterday I was a little anxious so I went out on a walk to the park. It was nice to get some fresh air and get out of the house. I find that when I feel stuck in my emotions, i am also stuck at home so I try to move around and do something.

kgriffin: I am a stay at home mom

chimama: Great benefits!!

ImSoTired: Congrats on your BFP!!!

snowbunnie: I am taking Women's One a Day Prenatal

Happenstance: Oh please keep us updated!!

The book I loved reading during my last pregnancy was The Mommy Docs' Ultimate Guide to Pregnancy and Birth. It was very informative, straight forward, and included anecdotes.

AFM: I got my second draw results back from yesterday. The number was 14298. I was so relieved to see that my numbers had jumped a crazy amount. First milestone reached!! I go in for my first appointment tomorrow. If I get an ultrasound, I hope to see and hear something. Hope everyone is having a good day. I spent the day with my husband for a second day in a row since he is off again today. We stopped by my parents' house and my daughter got to visit with her grandparents. She had a blast and tried some apple sauce. Loved it.
