Nurse thought I was an idiot!!!

I only took folic acid when I was pregnant because I can't tolerate Vitamin C. Generaly drugstores (CVS, Walgreens, etc) carry folic acid as a separate vitamin. I tolerated that fine.

Folic Acid

Your story was funny!

I am 11+ wks pregnant and I take a generic of flinstones multivitamin that has enough folic acid, I tolerate it better then most other "adult" vitamins. Hope that helps. PM me if you have any preconception questions, I have sooooo been through it with interviewing 4 MDs, then picking one, then having to change as she was clueless etc. I have learned ALOT so far.

Good luck-

Melanie

Haha! Thats Hilarious! Those are one of those "Here's your sign" moments (for the nurse that is). Well Congrats on the green light!

There was a gynecologist at the hospital where I worked who said he always tells his patients at their six week post-op check that they can now have intercourse --- because of another gyn who told a patient immediately after surgery to not have sex --- and two years later this same patient reported at her check-up that her husband really doesn't like the no sex routine!

Yup! There are ditzel-brains out there! More than we know......

You should have told her you thought it was a fertility treatment... boy, people just don't think things through sometimes.

I called an IT helpline once to find out what the error code on my computer's monitor meant, and the guy on the helpdesk said, "Ma'am, is your computer plugged in?" Uh, yeah, that's how I'm able to see this message on my screen... same mentality as your nurse. Assume everyone is an idiot.

lol thats funny...Yea I bet she was thinking you was a little ..
Well congrats on the go ahead and good luck

[tigger_gal]

lol I agree with Mary,

[waterflow]

You should have told her you thought you could get pregnant while still on the pill. Congrats on the green light!! Good luck to the both of you.

That is a story you could tell you kid when he/she gets older! I feel bad about it being funny at your expense, but I hope you are laughing too. The nurse needs to get a brain transplant.

OMG Leah!!! That was just the laugh I needed for the day!! I was literally laughing out loud.

[ihurttoo]

That is hysterical! I almost think I would've had to let her believe she cured me, just so she'd have a fantastic story to tell for the rest of her life.
