Just threw up after taking vitamins
So I got my celebrate free sample kit a few weeks ago. Now that I have been cleared to start adding vitamins I decided to try some of the vitamins out. I had purchased the children's multi-vitamins w/iron at my hospital pharmacy and that is what I had been taking so far with no problem.
I took one of the D3 Quick Melts and then a few minutes later I took one of the Multi-Complete Forrest Berry. The D3 seemed to go down ok. But when I took the Multi-Complete in Forrest Berry. I did not like the taste, it was just not very good. I took a few small sips of water afterwards and then I got a bad feeling in my tummy. I was going to reach for my Levsin and then my face got really hot and I ran for the emesis container I brought home from the hospital that was still sitting on one of the end tables. I didn't make it to the bathroom in time but luckily I had the emesis container nearby.
I feel a lot better now that it came up. I have no idea what happened or why it happened. I hadn't eaten recently. Just been sipping on water. I've been really trying to push the fluids today because I have not been getting in my full 64 oz. I've gotten in 54 oz so far today.

That doesn't sound like fun. Sorry you experienced this. I'm still using the children's chewables. I dislike the taste, but they work ok.
Love your new pic by the way!

I'm going to go back to the children's chewable. The vitamins are kind of a large size for chewable maybe it was to big of a swallow of vitamin. I don't know. Or maybe they just didn't not agree with my tummy.
Thanks I really am happy with it too. I've never been a fan of having my picture taken but I figured I should take some new ones to document my progress.

Bariatric vitamins make me throw up. I've tried various ones and have taken them with food, tried in the morning, tried in the afternoon, tried at night. Throw up everytime. Now I take a prenatal at night with a sublingual b-12 and a vitamin D supplement and all is good. I also take calcium. My doctor said at my last visit that some people just can't tolerate bariatric vitamins. All of my vitamin levels were good at 6 months except my vitamin D which is when I added that supplement.
I say take what works for you and adjust if need be when you start having your vitamin levels checked. My doctor checks at 6 mos and then at 12mos and then annually.

The only multi-vitamins I can keep down are One-a-day chewables. All other ones - my stomach can't tolerate. My other vitamins are okay, but ive had lots of problems with multis.
