still take folic acid?

[1986princess]

im still taking the folic acid my doctor prescribed me, im 14 weeks now should i still take it or take something else?it isnt pregnancare its called preconceive. just thought about this now!

 

[Olive]

I've started taking pregnacare plus, which seems quite good, but isn't cheap. I just thought it might be a bit better as has more vitamins as I haven't been very healthy recently food wise!

[1986princess]

Thanx Hun il start getting that now it does sento have all the extra vitamins in which make us feel better if we've had junk food days like I have today! Xx

My doctor said to stop taking the folic acid at 12 weeks.

I've been taking just normal pregnacare.

 

[TiffanyJaynexo]

I'm still taking my pregnacare every day despite the fact midwife said I don't need to
I want to breast-feed though so that's why I'm still taking it, will probably still take it when I'm breast-feeding too. xxx

I take the pregnacare plus, with the added omega tablet. Im not getting yellow pee anymore tho! I know that normlly means ur body is getting rid of excess vitamins... so not sure if these tablets are diffrrent to ther conception ones or whether itmy body telling me I really need them !

 

[Susanne]

Don't know about the pre-conception ones, although I would guess that they are similar enough to pregnacare, anyway. I'm using up my box of pregnacare tablets (enough for about another week or so, I think), and then I will stop, as I eat quite healthily, anyway.

 

[1986princess]

Thanx ladies I will get the pregnacare plus when I next go shopping and continue to take those for breast feeding! So will I need any supplements like vitamin c or d or anything? Midwife says asking as u have a healthy diet I should be fine but just like peace of mind x

 

[Pickledonions]

they already have vit b and c in them hun.im gonna take them all the way thro too a i plan to breast feed

 

[ChrissieCool]

I'm still taking my Sanatogen mother to be and that has folic acid in it but it's no harm to take it all the way through, also has all the vitamins I need in it and is really easy on the tummy too

 

[stephdueinjan]

i got told to take the pregnacare tablets but the 1st day i took them i came over really really unwell.. so didnt take them anymore and am now worried that im not taking anything and like a couple of u said not eating the healthiest of diets, and wanting to breast feed.. im sure i still can tho but is there anything else i could consider taking? i got the pregnacare plus ones so not sure if the plus tablet was what made me feel ill. hhmm... xxxx

Thanks for that info girls, I will give that a try! I was taking pregnacare but within minutes of taking it, I was sick doc told me just to try folic acid, so did but got the same results so I haven't been taking anything although I have been eating healthy.

 

[Lulabell]

I still take a pregnancy multivitamin and plan to even after birth.

 

[saraian26]

There are loads of different mother to be tablets you can take, I take some I bought from asda designed from pregnant - hey they were cheap! lmao
