Floradix is great. I have not taken it during my pregnancy but I have at times over the years as I am a vegetarian. I used to take 10mls two times daily with food, until the bottle ran out then I wouldnt need any again for 3-6months. So 40mls sounds alot but maybe you need the extra boost? You wouldnt need 40mls for too long though I dont suppose as its pretty effective stuff! Maybe talk to your doctor about cutting down after awhile, but you you will know within yourself when you dont need as much.

My GP put me onto a supplement called Fefol which you get from a chemist. It is an iron and folate tablet for pregnant women. You just take one a day and I've found it much easier than fiddling around and remembering to take dosages. I have it after dinner with a glass of orange juice. (This way I don't get constipated!).
