Geritol and Pregnancy

[Trecey25]

I just started the tonic also this month. The pills didn't work for me. It is quite nasty,but I hope all goes well. My significant other says this is the last go round. Sad if it doen't happen by January its over. I understand how frustrating it is for him, but he's been sticking by me for about 5 years now. Baby dust to everyone trying and Congrats to all that's pregnant.

hi i just start using geritol yesterday.. n i wanted to ask a question.. if you have sex a couple days before you use geritol can you still get pregnant

 

[jaymom]

Okay. My specialist has never heard of taking the tonic or gertiol in place of prenatals...I don't think ill continue to use it when I get a bfp...

You're supposed to switch to prenatals either after O or at BFP. I continued with the tonic until BFP because I wasn't 100% confident in FF with my O date. But according to measurements and stuff, it's pretty close

hi can u still get pregnant if yu take the pills 2days after you have sex

Omg.... Yesterday I bought the tonic. Took it this morning and almost threw up! It is so nasty... Hope I can continue to get through it! Also bought royal jelly and started that last night!

The easiest way to tolerate the tonic is to chase it with something stronger. I used either Robitussin or grapefruit juice

Grapefruit juice is what i do...really helps.

Yep, I immediately chased it with grapefruit juice. Burping it up later I think is worse... Sorry TMI! I hope the liquid is what gets me my BFP!

Me too, good luck to both of us!!!

Geritol isn't something that you take once or twice to get pregnant. You take it in place of a prenatal vitamin EVERYDAY. HTH

I know everytime I hear someone is ttc or had a loss and might need someone to vent to I always recommend this site. I love this site! Its almost better than going to a counselor...

Not sure if I want to continue the month with tonic. It is making me really sick to my stomach afterwards. Anyone else get that? Am I just being a puss?

 

[Powell130]

I did a few times when I didn't take it with food. Are you taking it with a meal?

 

[3gg0]

Yep. I eat my breakfast and take it immediately after.

I did too when I first started taking it. Only lasted a few days x

So weird knowing i'm ovulating today or tomorrow and knowing we can't BD...sort of frustrating. We are having to do everything the complete opposite that we've been doing the last 9 months and that's NOT do it during this fertile week this month or next...ugh! Driving me crazy! Still waiting on doc to call back with pathology results on the polyps and to get my appointment in the books for my next D&C to remove the polyps. But in the meantime, I'm trying to relax and just chill a little and get my fitness on! I'm just hoping we can start trying again by December. FX'd!!! Love ya'll and hope everyone's well! I'll go back through and catch up soon.

I start taking geritol complete on my last cycle day which was 09/10/12. I was supposed to come on my cycle 10/09 but no af..yayyy!!!! I took a pregnancy test last week which showed up negative but i still have faith and my fingers crossed so hopefully im pregnant but not to mention used to have irregular cycle but for the past 6 months i been seeing af until now... Baby dust to alllll trying to ttc!!!!!!

 

[ES89]

Well I've just chucked bk the last bit of my 12 fl oz (354ml) bottle of geritol tonic. Not sure whether to order another bottle? 9 or 10 days till af is due. I'm praying she stays away so I can have a summer baby

 

[babilove1]

hi im trying to concive but im not making it no where what should i do or take to help me??????

 

[babilove1]

i have been ttc 4 a yr or 2 nw so when is the best time to tke geritol

 

[ES89]

I felt exactly the same when I started geritol. Waiting to see if it worked this cycle. I took mine in the morning after breakfast. As long as you take it with food it shouldn't matter too much when u take it GL

 

[RockNRollBaby]

I'm currently on CD 4, and finally received my Geritol pills. I will begin them today and I am hoping for a BFP either this cycle or next.

Anyone new BFP's to add to this thread thanks to Geritol? Would love to hear from you!
