Is This Okay????
Posted: 11-19-04 16:33pm

Okay speaking that im on a waiting game to see if im pregnant I thought that I help things out... I just went out and brought multi vitamins... Its says 800mcg... Is that okay for me to take..... Its prenatal vitamins with iron.. Will that help....Because I figure that if im not now im still trying and this will help I guess....

Is 800mcg to much or to little????

Alot of doctors recommend to take folic acid if you are trying for a baby. You dont have to be pregnant to take it.

Well I take folic acid and my doctor said that if you take too much you'll just pee it out..So as far as I know, that does cant be harmful
