Folic Acid Deficiency Anaemia

Hello. I am 11 weeks pregnant and have been diagnosed with Folic Acid Deficiency Anaemia. I am terrified that my baby is going to have some sort of growth defect and I will have to terminate the pregnancy. Has anybody else had Folic Acid Anaemia while pregnant and gone on to have a perfectly healthy baby?

I had Folate deficient during first pregnancy and also my haemoglobin dropped to 50 (meant to be around 150+).

Perfectly healthy baby but was consultant led so be prepared for that.

Have they given you super strength folic acid to take?
