I’m thinking of taking prenatals for hair/etc (not pregnant). Is this vitamin safe?

I know it’s important not to go crazy with the iron and some other nutrients if you aren’t pregnant. This one seems reasonable to me, is there anything I should be concerned about?

Should I be taking any vitamins besides the one daily prenatal vitamin?

I am 20 weeks pregnant. I read that it was good to take Omega 3 supplements as well as vitamin D, but wasn’t sure if these items were covered with the basic prenatal vitamin. What are others out there taking?
