Deborah, specifically on the Building Blocks Multi-Vitamin? It was the Vitamin E. It was the "dl" not the "d" kind.

Looking at the Celebrate vitamins there are a couple that don't quite fit the amounts but they are closer. The ones that are off are the Vitamin C and Phosphorus. But it has more Vitamin C than the Building Blocks.

Basicly nose to nose they are pretty close to each other. The up side of the Celebrate in my mind is that they are cheaper plus they have more B-12 so that you won't have to supplement with additional B-12 unless you are showing a deficiency.

I do plan on adding in a 500mg Vit. C though, to take along with my iron to help with the absorption of the iron.
