I've been taking the seven seas pregnancy vitamins , I'm now 13 weeks. Just wondering when everyone stops?

Thought the folic acid was up till 12 weeks

I took them until about 6 months after the baby was born

Same, I took the pregnacare plus ones the whole pregnancy then took the breastfeeding version for like 7 or 8 months after she was born. I'd double check with your midwife, I'm sure they'll be able to tell you when it's recommended to take them until

I didn't like pregnancy vitamins because I didn't need the iron and they made me hideously constipated. I took folic acid until 14 weeks and continue to take vitamin D. That's it. I believe you can take an omega 3 (so long as it isn't a cod liver oil or vitamin A one) but personally I just eat oily fish and walnuts to get it that way. Midwife said that's fine. Speak with yours when you next see them.
