Prenatal vitamins

Question

I am still in my first trimester, approximately week 7 now. I requested for pre-natal vitamins from my doctor during my 1st visit but he only prescribed folic acid to me. Just wondering if its too early to eat pre-natal vitamins or do we usually have to source them ourselves? :)Also, any recommendations for prenatal vitamins or gummies?Thank you in advance!#firstbaby #advicepls #pregnancy #1stimemom

Folic acid is to be taken on 1st trimester only. Pre natal vitamins will be prescribed when you're nearly reaching your 2nd tri and to start taking on the 13th week. And only take what is prescribed to you. If you planned to take any other kind, always best to seek your gynae's advice as some may not be suitable for you or baby according to your health check.
