HELP Pregnant mummy supplements compulsory ?

Gynae gave me multi vitamin pills, calcium tablets and fish oil as daily pregnancy supplements to take. But it’s really hard to swallow so many big pills every day, is it really a must to take the 2 calcium tablets everyday and other vitamin pills ? Or is it possible to replace it with other food options or possibly there are smaller size of tablets ? I am a really bad at swallowing tablets and pills type of person >

Not really. My new OB is not fond of supplements. She just asks me to eat healthy food, whole foods mostly. Cut my sugar intake and overall, remove junk from my diet. She just prescribed me folic acid. My former OB gave me all sort of stuff and it was nauseating for me. But still, follow your dr’s orders :)
