Supplements once pregnant

Not sure which board would be best to post this on but I've had 3 miscarriages in the past. I was taking supplements a lot of which are recommended in It Starts with an Egg. I am wondering if anyone knows which are meant to be continued into pregnancy.

I was taking:

Myo inositol
Methyl folate
Vitamin D, C, E, B6 and B12 (methylated version)
Zinc
Selenium
NAC
Alpha lipoic acid
Magnesium
Ubiquinol

My GP said they were all fine but I don't know which to continue with and getting in touch with them to ask a question is so difficult these days!

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

We had IVF and was advised to just take an all in one pregnancy vitamin once pregnancy was confirmed. In addition to this, progesterone pessaries were prescribed until I was 9 weeks.

Although they did say if I wanted to keep taking vitamins separately, they advised folic acid up to 12 weeks, vitamin D, B12 and Iron. I also keep seeing Choline recommended by pregnancy dieticians.

Thank you for your response! I will stick to the basic ones then. I have also been prescribed progesterone so will see if it makes a difference this time! Thanks
