Hi,
I am currently 7 weeks pregnant and found out yesterday through a private scan that we’re expecting twins.
I rang the midwives to ask if I need higher dose of Folic Acid as I’m currently taking Pregnacare Max with only 400mg. The midwife said that I need 5mg of Folic Acid and 25mcg of Vitamin D, but pregnacare only has 10mcg of that too. So I asked if I should take the Folic Acid 5mg and 25mcg Vitamin D on top of the Pregnacare but she said no and only take the 2.
Has anyone who is / been pregnant with twins been advised the same?? I mean, don’t I need the additional vitamins? I’ve read in a thread that they take these on top of the Pregnacare so not sure why they’re advising me differently.
Thank you very much.
