Hi

Go to the drs they will tell you what you need. You may be deficient in iron or vitamin D.

Pregnacare contains folic acid, so I wouldn't take additional folic acid without running it past a doctor. Or do you mean stop Pregnacare and go back to just folic acid? That would be fine but you should also add a vitamin D supplement

Have your iron levels checked by a gp x

@Sophie I mean taking the two together the Pregnacare and folic acid . Yeah I know pregna care contains folic acid but was just thinking of adding more.xx

@Gurpreet what’s Drs please. I have Vit D supplement, might as well be taking one everyday

@Celine okay will do that . Thank you

Drs = doctor's surgery

Extra folic acid won’t help if you’re feeling weak. There’s another deficiency that needs to be checked out so contact your midwife and / or doctors for some tests

@Sophie okay I will do as advised. Thank you

Midwife told me not to take folic acid after 12 weeks, that’s why I’ve never taken pregnacare because it continues it up until birth! I take iron and vitamin d x

@Alex it's not that you shouldn't take folic acid after 12 weeks, it's just that it's not necessary for most people to do so. But there's no harm in taking it as part of a supplement

@Sophie that’s what I thought but she said something about a slight increased risk of tongue tie (not sure how true it is) so said it’s best to just not xx
