Folic Acid
Hi Ladies,
I am 13 months post-up (and just shy of 15 pounds to goal... woo hoo) and hoping to get pregnant within the next year. I know I need to begin taking Folic Acid, but I am wondering about the dosage. Should I be doubling up at this point - one at night and one in the AM to ensure absorbtion or what?
Thanks
Jenn

My prenatal has 100% DMV for Folic Acid, but I have also been taking another 100% (400 mcg) as a seperate supplement, just in case. I plan on continuing that through my first trimester, when all the organs are forming. After that, my Doc said the prenatal should be enough, and of course being post RNY they will check my vit levels frequently, including folic acid.
