Wow! Congratulations Mrs. Daddy! (now new mummy)![]()
Yes it is essential to take folic acid(VitB9 or Folate) to prevent birth defects...it also plays a large role in cell growth and development, as well as tissue formation. It is recommended to take a daily dose of folic acid starting at least one month prior to conception and during the first trimester of pregnancy.Consult your OB for further info.
I'm so happy for you![]()
