    At least 400 mcg of folic acid. You can just go to the pharmacy to get any folic acid. Even their house brand is fine too.

      I went for my first appt at 5+6 weeks, but it was still too early to see heartbeat for viability so they scheduled another appt 2 weeks later. only after confirming heartbeat did they do the blood test. hope this helps!
