I've been taking prenatals for...well over a year. I started taking them in September of 2008, before I was even pregnant. I ran out in October of 2008. (It was only a month's supply, obviously.) I went a few days without them, thinking "what's the big deal?" (And there was no big deal.) But funny thing, a few days later I found out I was pregnant!
Interestingly enough, I was also out of pills for a few days in late September 2009. I had reached the point of frustration with trying to get pregnant, and again thought, "who cares? no big deal." Ha! October 3rd I found out about my second pregnancy.
I haven't missed a night of taking my vitamin since then, with the exception of about a full week after I lost each baby. It kind of felt like...what the heck is the point? But both times I got quickly back on the band wagon.
I say all this to say...I've been without prenatal vitamins for the past 3 days. What do they say about history repeating itself? I can only hope!
(Don't worry, I went out and bought some.)
