Honestly, half the time I forgot if I took it or not because of pregnancy brain! Just keep the strip next to your toothbrush so you take it daily as doc advised.

Gynac jo tablet likh ke dete hain, bas wahi roz paani ke sath leni hoti hai, haina? Apne se koi bhi medicine mat lena.

My saas told me to eat lots of green leafy veggies, but my doctor said taking the daily folic acid tablet is a must. Just take it with water at the same time every day.
