I'm just a bit curious here, NOT an "I take more/less than you" competition. How many pills (from vitamins/supplements) do you and/or your DH take a day? I'm up to 17 a day, but I'll be adding in 2 more when I get my vitamin E and B-complex in. Each day I take: prenatal x2 flaxseed oil x6 CoQ10 x2 zinc x1 calcium x4 D3 x2 I'm not sure how many DH is taking. I think it's something like: fertilaid x2 men's one a day x1 flaxseed oil x4 zinc x1 Coq10 x2 calcium x4 And I think he'll be adding in the E and B-complex as well. If you would have asked us if we'd be doing all this to try and get pg before the VR, we would have laughed at you. Funny what you're willing to do to get pg though.

Holy buckets! You made me think of a funny little thing I remember hearing my FIL say when his daughters were trying to make him take all sorts of supps. "For pity sake I am gonna rattle when I walk when you 3 are done with me!"
I am really bad about taking stuff I know it is good for me, my DH is the one who hands me my MV every day or I probably wouldn't think to take it! Now in a few months it may be a different story, but I haven't a clue what I am really dealing with yet! So for now it is just DMVs.

I know, it's really a lot, but I just CAN'T be alone....can I? lol I figure there must be other pill-aholics here. Really though, I would have NEVER thought in a million years that I'd be willing to do this, but I want a baby so badly, that this doesn't even seem like a big commitment compared to that. Swallowing a few pills a day to help increase my health, and in turn my chances at conceiving, seems like nothing. KWIM??
