Noooo, it's really only the first 12 weeks hun that it's at it's most important. You'll be fine, don't stress about it at all xx

thanx hun x just thought with the saying to keep taking it, sure the odd day off doesnt hurt x

I diddnt know you still had to take it after 12 weeks. Mines sat in the bathroom cupbord gathering dust, should I start taking it again?

I don't think you have to take it after 12 weeks as it's really only important for the baby's development stage. Now that has passed it's not really required. I still take mine but only because it is included in my multivitamin tablet. I know I have missed taking it the odd day though. I really don't think you have anything at all to worry about

Yeah think the odd day off doesn't hurt, my consultant said to keep taking it for the vitamins and minerals and to keep my iron levels up with being twins. But a day off can't hurt! X
