How long should a pregnant woman taking folic acid?

I am confused.. Because I read an article that it should take only for 12 weeks and others along the way during your pregnancy

Yup. That's right! 12 weeks only. Then, may iba na ulit irereseta na prenatal vitamins si OB mo.

During the first 12 weeks of pregnancy only take this medicine if your doctor has specifically recommended it. For the remainder of the pregnancy Ferrous Sulfate tablets can be taken to prevent iron deficiency.
