No, you will be fine.

Omg thank you x

I got a prescription for folic acid in addition to what you get in the otc vitamins, because my bmi is fairly high. I'm pretty sure it wouldn't do much harm but you could always check with the pharmacist? How many mg are you taking, just out of interest (not because I know about potential harmful levels or anything!)

No. High risk mummies need to take 12 times the dose of folic acid that is advised, so you will be fine with a double dose. Plus you will have folic acid in your diet aswell in cereals etc. You dont need to worry.

Oh thank you I'm a worrier anyway! I was only taking one folic acid and one of the vitamin one, think next time my midwife tell me to take something I'm triple checking

Thank you all

Plus folic acid is water soluble and so any you and baby don't need comes out in your pee.

You can't overdose on folic acid like pp said anything your body doesn't need gets flushed out
