It might be due to lower digestion rates as your pregnancy occurs and nothing to do with folic acid as folic acid is essential for your baby’s brain development. Personally, I had started eating folic acid way before pregnancy and the increased dosage from doctor in my first trimester didn’t make any difference to me.

And consume fruits and vegetables with fibre to help. You may also eat some prunes which is high in fibre to relieve the constipation.
