    I think you just stick to the regular schedule. No need to double up. It's okay.

    You don't have to double up.

    I wouldn't double up to much can hurt you...I ended up with kidney stones off the regular dose and had to go to Flintstones.

    I ended up w a kidney stone too due to the vitamins so the Dr told me to take them every other day. He had to replace my kidney stent so he told me to discontinue the vitamins since the stent had calcification. Now I am on frolic acid & kid Flintstones

    They say don't double up. If you miss it you will be ok.

    @cute_pebbles I had the same problem, so I took half a pill early in my pregnancy so my body could adjust to it. Then into my 3rd month I took a whole one. My doctor said it was better than not taking it at all. How far along are you?

    @cute_pebbles yeah there are a variety of over the counter ones. My doctor even suggested taking the flinstones vitamins and folic acid supplements if I couldn't handle the prenatal multivitamin. I'm also small so I totally understand. Good luck!
