Hi all,

I forgot to take my pregnacare yesterday (and TBH the day before is hazy..) & wondered if I should take 2 today or if it would make no difference? Any advice appreciated as I am an insatiable worrier

Thanks

I wouldn't worry about it!

I doubt missing one day will make any difference!

I think you shouldn't worry at all, it is a complement to your diet not a life saving medicine.

No, I wouldn't double dose pregnacare - it's not just folic acid in there do you don't want double of everything in one day.

Don't worry at all, one day won't make a jot of difference.

Don't worry.... I missed a fair few days when feeling rather sick.... my son is lovely despite this. Congratulations!

No definitely not. You have folic acid in your diet too. It's fine to miss it now and then.
