Who did you check your Suppliments with?

I am researching suppliments so I can have them ready to go when I start my diet in May.  I find msot things come in Multi's, such as calcium and Magnesium, and Folic and Iodine. Many of them do have Folic.

I don;t jsut want to show up at my doctors and say "Hi, you will think i'm completely mental but I'm TTC a girl, and I plan to take this this and this, what do you think?" Because I will get commited, but I don't want to take the wrong things or too much of them. A pharmacist wont ask questions, but will probably say "why not take a prenatal vitamin?" Which I'm not keen on doing because it doesnt have all the things I want in the right quantities and has some things I dont want.

So, once you picked what to take and how much of it, how did you make sure it was correct?

i asked Tamara!!  i trust her expertise :)

SOS sis:

i asked Tamara!!  i trust her expertise :)

I wasn't sure.. I mean, I know Tamara isn't a doctor and wasn't sure how well she knew correct doses of vitamins etc, or if she wanted that responsibility of saying "yes, that amount is fine". I also think we have slightly different reccomendations in Aus for most things than in the US.

Either way, if thats an option, its worth a try.. guess i'm going gold!

 oh, i see what you mean   i thought you meant in general as far as swaying. 

the thing i found w/ swaying is that it doesn't always go along w/ "recommendations"-like for ttc girl, prenatal isn't suggested.  in FAQs, there is a list of diff supps to take to help w/ egg quality/health.  i guess it all depends on what you feel comfotable w/ & how strong of a sway you want.

 and Gold is AWESOME!!
