If you are taking a pre-natal most of them include folic acid so it's a good idea to continue taking it. Vitamin D is also essential. Unless you live somewhere really sunny I would keep taking it

I agree with silverdream. take them until delivery and recovery and for as long as you breastfeed. the first twelve weeks are just the most crucial, but that doesn't mean they don't continue doing good for the baby.

I was told you need all of that all the way thru pregnancy and if you plan to breast feed its a good idea to take them still.
