hi, i forgot 2 take my dose of folic acid yesterday, i'm 7 weeks pregnant, should i take 2 today or just carry on with my usual dose?
what r the dangers of missing one pill?
thanks

hi, i had my baby 3 weeks ago, and not once during my pregnancy did i take folic acid, and he;s healthy and beautiful. Obviously its good if u do take it, but its not the end of the world if u forget the odd one. Just carry on taking them daily, don't take extra to make up for what u missed out, that would prob do more harm than missing the odd pill. Good luck with ur pregnancy x

Hi there

Please don't worry nothing will happen because you have missed a tablet. I wouldn't take two today just continue with your usual daily dose.

Folic acid is really good for the baby but remember years ago women didn't take any extra supplements and still had gorgeous healthy babies.

Good luck with the rest of your pregnancy
