no, you take the geritol in place of a prenatal. also, get a folic acid supplement because there isn't any/much in geritol. I hope this works for you!! your body will be really fertile for the next 2-3 months. I got pregnant 1 cycle after an early miscarriage and am currently 21 weeks pregnant with a perfect little boy. I hope you can be so lucky! Let me know if you have any other questions. Good Luck!

ohkay thank yu so much .
omg congrats ! 😃
when yu found out yu were pregnant yu keep takin geritol or yu stop . since it has 16 % of alcohol ? sorry
well im excitedddd ! 😊

oh and ive been anemic �� since im 17 .

 

[Powell130]

oh yeah, forgot to tell you that part lol yeah i switched back to a prenatal after I planned on switching after O but I couldn't pin point my O day. Are you taking an iron supplement? I wasn't ever anemic but since being pregnant my iron has been low so my doc prescribed me one, but they can be bought over the counter

So I was talking to a friend of mine about ttc. Well she recommended me to start taking Liquid Geritol. There is an old wives tales that there is a baby in every bottle. I came home and I googled it; apparently, there has many success stories as to using this. I'm going to test it just to see how true it is. My friend also gave me her prenatal vitamins from her previous pregnancy so this is how my next two months will go. I will be using:

Liquid Geritol Complete
Prenatal Vitamins
SMEP
Hubby will be taking Zinc


I'm pretty excited to test this old wives tale for you ladies. Going to go buy my Geritol today and will start it today. I'm going into my fertile week so I might get lucky haha. I'm currently on cd10 btw. Remember I'm giving this 2-3 months

Also liquid geritol does not cost much, it runs for at least $10 or $11 at cvs.

omgggg ! happy for yu , im new to this and im excited to try ti

[Powell130]

Then I would say try the geritol til you get a BFP unless your O is obvious. I'm not regular either, and even with temping and FF giving me crosshairs, I still wasn't 100% sure when I O'd.

We're due May 14 2013

Well...had a huge temp drop this morning so please God let this be it! Let this be the infamous implantation dip right on cue. Please God let my temp spike again tomorrow and continue to rise. Thank you very much. Amen...

hello ladies i havent posted in a long while but just wanted to check in wish all of u luck as for me im 23 weeks strong...prayin for all of u #baby dust#

I just wanted to update all of you lovely ladies, I had been taking Geritol since November 20th, and I got my BFP on December 22nd. I was TTC for about 6 months, & then NTNP since 3 months. I stopped taking Geritol once I got my BFP, but have switched to a Prenatal vitamin with folic acid. Sending lots of baby dust to everyone awaiting their BFPS!

Wow, awesome! Congrats to both of you!!!
