How long do you have to take Folate tabs for?

[AJC]

The folate has done it's job for Bub by the time you reach 12 weeks, but there are other advantages for continuing to take it. Double check with your Ob, I took it until about 16 weeks cause I had just bought a new jar and Ob said just to keep taking it until I ran out. Was also taking Blackmores pregnancy Gold. I had a single pregnancy though.

Hi Ladies,

I am 15 wks pregnant with first child and I am taking Elevit. The box says you can take them through whole pregnancy and whilst breastfeeding.
