A midwife the other day told me to not take anything other than vitamin d now, she dismissed pregnacare and other multi vits, saying everything will now come safely from a good well balanced diet. She didn't bat an eyelid when dh pointed out we're vegetarian. My worry is that she's not really taken this in... Omega 3 for example, I was taking fish oil (not cod liver) and flaxseed oil to simply get what is hard /you can't with a non fish vegetarian diet.
Am I justified in thinking she didn't really know what she was saying? Surely multi vits (without folic acid - if there is one) would still be a good idea?
