Folic Acid and Vitamin D

[Amaye]

Hi,

My husband and I are TTC baby number 1. I’ve been trying to follow some advice that i’ve read here and have been taking a folic acid and vit d pill from Boots.

I’ve realised that I forgot to take it yesterday....so can I take 2 today or should I just leave it? Is there such a thing as too much folic acid and vit d?!

Thanks

Hi
If it were me, this would be my thinking: just take the one today- it's a daily dose so the body is likely just to excrete the excess.
However, I am no expert/doctor!

I would take one a day only although don't think you can OD on it.

Okay thanks :) two different opinions...I haven't taken it yet. Might just leave it. Lots of people don't start taking it until they know they are pregnant surely!
