As i may have told you before, my sister had a baby with Anencephaly. So I am very strict with my folic acid!!!! Obviously, i would try to take it when you feel less like you are going to throw up, if you do throw up soon after, try to work out whether you threw the tablet up. If you did or are not sure, it would be safe for you to take another tablet. I am taking a 5MG tab (5mcg is the usually the recommended dose in normal pregnancies) so if you have to take another tablet you can, 10mcg is definately not too much for you to have in one day. I have asked my Dr about overdosing on folic acid and she said in my case it would be best to overdose than underdose. That is just my opinion but then again i am super paranoid!!!! You can always just try to increase the amount of foods containing folic acid but then again, food is probably harder to keep down than a little tablet anyway!!
