Regarding folic acid
Hi Doc,
We are currently in the UK, and my wife is using 'Seven Seas pregnancy multi vitamins' which has folic acid in it. Can she continue them all through her pregnancy or just stop it as she is in her 2nd trimester and take only multi vitamins without folic acid?.
Could you help with it, please?

You are in UK.
You are using 7 Seas Multivitamins. Are these the same as are available in India?
Please consult your Gynaecologist there.

Yes she can use, but generally we shift from folic acid to iron and calcium in second trimester, so talk to your doctor regarding that!
