    You can get Pregnacare way cheaper off eBay. Also, my MW said that after 12 weeks you don't need a pregnancy vitamin so if you just want to get the normal benefits take a normal multivit + minerals instead (they're far cheaper) - just be careful to check for not-too-high Vit A content.

    For my first 12 weeks i used santogen pro natal with omega 3 capsules. They were changing there packaging before i got preg and tesco reduced them to £3 from £7 so i grabbed a box for when i got preg again. And then i used boots standard folic acid for when i ran out :) £2 - Bargin :D

    I want to get some vitamins anyway, maybe some vitD, VitC and Calcium as i know im not getting alot of them ones.

    I'll browse boots at some point :D

  • I never even thought of looking on ebay, thanks lol :)

    This might be of interest: the swine flu vaccine for the UK has been approved (for pregnant women, too) with vaccination likely to start in October: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/health/8274374.stm
