I take a prenatal with DHA every morning with breakfast. If my breastmilk supply dips during my period or at ovulation I swap it out for calcium + magnesium. And either take the prenatal or more Ca+Mg at bed depending on how slow my letdown was or how sensitive my nips were that day.
DH does not take vitamins.
DS takes a prescription multivitamin with fluoride since our water isn't fluoridated. It does not contain iron.
I take a prenatal and fish oil. I'll maybe eventually need the prenatal, plus nice nails. Sometimes Ca+Mg, but I haven't been taking it lately and my legs have been sore.
None for H or DS. I do give DS a probiotics in his breakfast and I take a pill as well.
I currently take a prenatal and 5000mg of vitamin D. The prenatal is recommended still since I am Bfing C however I will likely stay on it for the foreseeable future. Why not? It's a good vitamin with actual regulation.
I take a hair, nail, skin but I don't think that's technically a vitamin. I see a difference in my nails and hair when I take it though. DH takes an adult gummy vitamin and I do not give any to the girls.
I've been taking a prenatal and need to get a new bottle. DH wants to start a vitamin, and V has Flintstones vitamins. He doesn't take them all the time, but he likes to take them.
aggiebug brings up a good point about the regulation work prenatal, I had been thinking of switching to a multivitamin instead of the prenatal, but I think I'll stay.

If he wants to take a vitamin I would look for o e with a USP seal. It's not as solid as FDA regulations, but does provide some level of quality control but a 3rd party.
I take prenatal with DHA, vitamin C gummies, and a liquid probiotic.
DH refuses vitamins but needs them bc his diet is questionable. He buys them but never takes them.
DD takes the NovaFerrum liquid multivitamin with iron and mommy's bliss probiotic (used to take gerber soothe but it's more expensive). i keep wanting to switch her to a different probiotic, but every time i look into options i get overwhelmed.
I see a lot of you mentioning probiotics for the littles. Was that something your pediatrician recommended and for what reason?
I started DS on them because he was a C-section baby. It also seemed to help with his reflux and his ability to digest formula (H jokes that it's DS's fart powder). Now it's to help maintain the good bacteria in his gut when he isn't eating yogurt or fermented foods. Helps keep him regular, although the amount of fruit he eats helps with that.
dreemkin I'm a big believer in probiotics for immune system support, so that's the big reason DD takes them. I started it very early to try to help with reflux too.
DS has probiotics but doesn't take them on a regular basis. His pediatrician recommended them when he was sick. He eats lots of live culture yogurt though, so I figure he gets them from they're also.
