Obimin already has folic acid, and nothing wrong eating vitamins that comes with it no matter what stage you are. I ate Obimin for both of my pregnancies. I think vitamins help too with first trimester, especially when have morning sickness and food aversion.
Folic acid shd be taken during your first trimester. Then the Obimin in your 2nd & 3rd trimester.. The folic acid is important because it can help prevent some major birth defects of the baby's brain (anencephaly) and spine (spina bifida). Hope this helps!
