We are planning to start trying in a few months and a friend said start folic acid pehle se only. Is that true, can we begin before actually conceiving? wanted to ask doc but thought I'll check here first.
My mother-in-law was saying to just eat healthy traditional food, but I went to the doctor and she prescribed folic acid. It is very important for the baby's growth, so do take it.
Folic acid tablets are very cheap and highly effective. Taking them early saves you from complex tests and complications later on, so definitely invest in a basic prescription.
Actually, all pregnancy trackers recommend starting folic acid at least 2-3 months before trying. It helps prevent neural tube defects, so it's a great step!
I know how stressful the planning phase can be, every small pill makes you overthink. But folic acid is totally safe and highly recommended before conceiving to keep baby safe.
Haha, yes, take it! I've been swallowing pills for 8 months now and I'm so done. But starting early really helps, so get a head start before the actual fatigue hits you!
I totally understand that excitement and nervousness when you start planning! Folic acid is like a little shield of love for your future baby, definitely start it.
Yes! When we decided to plan, I felt so anxious but my doctor started me on folic acid right away. It made me feel like I was already doing the best for my future baby.
We just started trying and I was a bit shy to ask, but my gynecologist told me to start taking folic acid daily. It is very normal and good for planning.
Yes, you can, but make sure to get a full blood panel done first. When I checked, my thyroid was also high, so regular follow-ups along with folic acid really helped me conceive safely.
