Relation between pregnacare and bleeding/cramps anyone else??

[Polkadotpea]

Hi ladies,

When I was 4 weeks pregnant I swapped from folic acid to the pregnacare pregnancy tablets and I started awfully cramping one night and woke up to bleeding/spotting. I was worried the tablets caused it and stopped taking them and switched back to folic acid. And didn't take them for weeks due to my ongoing horrendous Hyperemesis as well. Well last night I took one as instructed after main meal. I am now 13+6 pregnant and the whole day I've had the awful cramping in my upper abdomen which has just got lower to my uterus area, the same cramping I had after taking these tablets for 2 days at 4 weeks pregnant. I've not had any blood this time though.

Anyone else had a similar experience? I will definitely not be taking anymore seems too much of a coincidence given the same pain almost 10 weeks apart!

Thanks x

I've been fine with them but maybe u are allergic to something in them?

Polkadot - I have finally found someone that got the symptoms I did with pregnacare! I almost feel like all the bleeding through my pregnancy was triggered by it! Maybe it's something else but things settled down once I stopped it x

It does make you wonder doesn't it! This is my 4th baby, with my other 3 I just took supermarket own folic acid and no pregnacare and didn't have a speck of blood with any of them! The pains are still here and painful hoping they are gone tomorrow! X
