I am HORRIBLE at taking any kind of pills, I always seem to forget but this is going to be a time that I can't forget. I'm trying to fiind a way that I don't have to take a millions different pills because I'll be less likely to forget that way.

Any other tips?

I don't have a big regimen of stuff I take. I am starting with the basics. I take a liquid vitamin in the am with breakfast. I no longer supplement with B12 or Biotin since they are now in the vitamin I take. I use those tiny little ziplock bags they make for crafts (cheaper than the tiny ones they make for meds) and I put in my 2 calcium with D (or 2 chewable calcium citrate chews) and my iron capsule. I just spread them out throughout the day whenever I drink. My levels were all fine, so it's working for me. The liquid vitamin is one Robin recommended.
