*URGENT* How To Start To Wean Off Of My Girl Swaying Supplements

Hello ladies, I'm need immediate advice. I think I Oed or am about to O and I want to start to cut down on the supplements I am taking.

Here's my list:
2 Calcium tablets with 800 iu of VitD 600 MG Calcium each = 1200 mg
3 Magnesium tablets with 15 mg Zinc. = 400mg
1 Vitamin B-50 complex Vitamin
Has 50 mgs of each B1,2,3,6,12, and 400 mcg of folate, 50 mcg of biotin and pantothenic acid

How much folic should I be taking right now?
I have 800 mcg tablets I just was doing the B50 with the folate in it.

Then Lastly 2 Raspberry leave capsules 960 mcg

So I am not good with knowing how to wean off of meds and how far I should space it out..from now I can do it slowly
So I need your help! :) And I want to start to at least cut some calcium and magnesium.
Thank you ladies!

Continue with the folic acid, most definately.
Are you wanting to ween off incase you get a BFP?

For now....
1 1/2 tablets calcium, 2 magnesium, and took off a piece of the B50 and had the 2 raspberry leave capsules..
Is that good? Or should I take a half more of magnesium...so it would be 2 and 1/2 tablets..

Yes, I'm SO nervous.. I just want to cut down now so it will be easier to wean off when I get a BFP.
I didn't listen to Atomic last time, and I wish I had :(

So should I take a half more of my 800 folic acid mcg pill to go along with the folate in my B50 pill?

I'd be more inclined to cut back the RL and the B50 if you are wanting to cut back on some supps.

If you google "how to wean off raspberry leaf tablets" there are a few info pages there :)

Ok I already took them because I had to hurry and take them because I have to space my thyroid meds 4 hours later.. I HATE THAT!
So if Atomic gets my message soon, I will prob do one pill from now until BFP/AF?

It's the B50 that scares me the most to wean off of so I think I want to just take a piece a day off of it and try to space it out every 2 or 3 days..
Raspberry leaves I've been on them, 2.5 weeks now.

Yep and try different word combos lol ;)

I'd like to see you continue at a higher dose of D if you can - D is good for you! I took/take 1000 mcg in my last 3 pg.

Continue the B complex, nothing wrong with that! :agree: Some of the doses are a bit higher than the RDA but you just pee out excess B vites and none of them are at dangerously high levels. I'd like to see you take 1200-1600 mcg of folic (including the amount you're already taking.) thru the first trimester and then wean back to the amount in a prenatal.

What I would do is start by taking alternating one tablet, two tablets of the cal, mag (just drop the 3rd mag/zinc pill, I don't like you taking that much zinc) every other day for a couple days, then every two days, then every three days, then when you're taking it every 4 days (once a week) drop the pill. That leaves you with 600 mg calcium and about 130 mg mag, which is a fine and sane amount to take during pg.

With the RRL, I would go ahead and drop one of the pills right away and then gradually wean yourself off the other pill like I described with the cal-mag.
