Hi I’m 7 weeks pregnant and have been taking folic acid combined with vitamin D. But should I be taking pregnacare or equivalent too?

Unless you have been told otherwise but your doctor/midwife then vit D and folic is all they recommend.

Nope. Just eat a reasonably balanced diet. Pregnacare is just marketing. You don’t need anything other than the folic acid and vitamin D. Just vitamin D after 12 weeks.

Thanks. I was feeling starving up until I hit 6 weeks and was snacking on cheese cubes, fruit and yoghurt, was eating fish and meat but now I have completely lost my appetite and existing on milkshake, fruit and carbs so not as healthy as the earlier weeks.
