Quick Question Re Pre-natal Vitamins

[GiGiGiGi]

Hi Y'all,

Just wondering... Have been TTC for quite some time now.  I have run out of Folic Acid which I had been taking in conjunction with my daily Multi-vitamin.  Being overly optimistic, I bought some pre-natal vitamins a while ago which will reach their expiry date in the next year.  

Can I start taking those while TTC instead of combining a Multivitamin and Folic Acid? I think that they should be ok but I would like to hear from others.  Does anyone else just take a prenatal vitamin while TTC?

Any advice would be appreciated!

My OB also said to take Prenatals while ttc. I actually find that the PNV are easier to take than multivitamins (which is funny because they made me sick my first pregnancy.) GOOD LUCK.

Thanks again!

prior to my pregnancy, my OB/RE told me to take a prenatal vitamin everyday so that you had all the right vitamins in your body when you do get pregnant.  folic acid is great to have in your body prior to.
