    I’ve been taking these since we found out we were pregnant and not had any problems day to day. I tend to take them with my dinner as I took them in the morning a couple of times and I felt sick. When I’ve taken them with dinner I’ve had no problem at all.

    Been taking these since we decided to start trying to conceive. They were also recommended by my midwife. They include all supplements you need when pregnant although you can buy the plus version that include omega 3 if you wish. Easy to take, not too big in size.

    All my friends swear by these so when I found out I was pregnant I brought these straight away! Unfortunately they made me so sick and my midwife told me it’s due to the amount of vitamins they actually have in them! If you don’t need all of them because your levels are already high then these can make you feel really sick! I changed you just folic acid and vitamin d tablets and since then I’ve felt amazing!

    I was taking trying to conceive vitamins before I brought these from amazon. Although slightly expensive they are worth it as it has everything mum and baby need. Midwife said that my sons umbilical cord was one of the thickest she'd seen before, she said it was good for baby so I'm assuming these little vitamins had something to do with it aswell as nutrition. They are large and sometimes I used to struggle to swallow them with water which is also when I would get a weird taste from them. I also get a handful of sample packs in my bounty pack which was great as these can sometimes get expensive.

    I took these tablets throughout my pregnancy, from the very beginning, for peace of mind that I was getting all the nutrients I needed for growing her. They were recommended by my midwife too.
    They aren't offensive taste-wise and are easy enough to swallow. I made sure I had mine in the evening on a full stomach though, as recommended, otherwise they made my "all day sickness" worse. On this note I felt reassured knowing that important nutrients were getting into my system after being sick earlier in the day and not being able to keep much food down.
    I've since started taking the Pregnancy breastfeeding vitamins and now give the Wellbaby vitamin drops to my 6 month old daughter as well because I trust the brand. The only downside is that they can be quite pricey if you don't get them on a deal such as 3 for 2.

    I have taken these every day throughout my pregnancy so far. I did have several breaks throughout as I’ve been suffering with hyperemesis gravidarium and wasn’t sure whether these vitamins were contributing to the sickness. I’d read about several people that found taking their vitamins in the morning actually made them more nauseous and more likely to vomit. So after speaking to my GP I started taking them at night just before bed, it did help significantly.
    The downsides are- the price, some people are put off by how much a they cost but I managed to get them in a 3for2 offer and have enough vitamins to cover the whole of my pregnancy. The taste isn’t great but if you have everything to hand and throw the tablet to the back of your throat and knock it back with juice or something with a bit of taste then it’s tolerable. I don’t get any reflux from the taste of the tablet either. The size of the tablet bothered me at first, especially when I was at my worst with hyperemesis and even breathing would set my gag reflex off. Now I don’t even think about the size and just knock it back.
    All in all this is the recommended vitamin and I wouldn’t choose anything different. I do take extra vitamin D, folic acid and magnesium but that’s my personal preference for my own reasons.

    I found these hard to take and the taste was pretty nasty in my opinion. But as it had all the goodness in just one tablet that I needed to help support and give the best to my rainbow babie I made myself take them with a mouthful of water and then I'd pop the tablet in and swallow as quick as could. If I didn't struggle to get pregnant with my fourth I think I would had given up taken after a few times.

    I was originally taking folic acid and vitamin D separately but then I was given these at my 12 week scan in a Bounty bag. They have all the vitamins I need without making me feel sick like other brands. They are expensive but worth it to know that I am taking care of the baby and myself.

    I can’t lie and say these are easy to take, they taste pretty rank and are quite large. My trick is to take a mouthful of water first and then pop the pill in and quick as I can swallow. However they contain all the reccommended vitamins and more in one daily dose and what more could you want for your unborn baby!

    The product is full of everything you need to support your needs through pregnancy however, for a first trimester mum full of nausea - the size, smell and taste of the pill can leave you closer to the toilet than feeling top of your game.

    I took these every day for my entire pregnancy, I don’t know if they actually helped but my son is here & healthy so they didn’t do any harm. They’re not a horrific price as some vitamin tablets can be, & these are the ones recommended by midwives. In fact, you get a free sample of them in with your Bounty pack that you get from the doctors which is where I heard of them so when I finished that, I just bought more. I do believe you can get packets with different amounts in for various prices so you can always buy a smaller pack to try them & see how you get on.
