Folic Acid and Pregnancy

[cure65roses]

Hello girls.  I have been studying up on eating healthy for baby.  And I wanted to mention a couple of great items i found that are super high in folic acid.  1) KIWI FRUIT (80%) and 2) Walmart (Great Value brand) Fruit Grain bars (100% of your daily value.)   I read that folic acid is extremely important in the first 28 days of conception as that is when the major organs are formed.  

Please write back with any other nutrional foods you'd like to mention, to promote a healthy pregnancy and babies. :-)

Being that I am having a hard time tolerating food I am taking an additional Folic Acid Vitamin along with my prenatal. I am sure it is better to get it in food, but that is not much of an option for me right now.

Thanks for the great info ladies!
