Hi, Currently around 4w2d with my second pregnancy and have been prescribed 5mg folic acid which i started this evening. Since taking it I have had quite an upset stomach and was just wondering if anyone else has experienced similar? I did take this in my first pregnancy but cannot remember if this happened then too. Any experience/advice welcome. Thanks x

Not had that no. You've only had one dose so far and an upset stomach could have a number of causes so I would keep on with the folic acid.

I did - settled down after a few days.
