I'm horrible at taking them.. I'm always forgetting.. I did with my last pregnancy too.. And she was more than healthy..

I will probably get grief for it but all prenatals made me sick so I didn't take any my whole pregnancy and my baby girl was perfectly healthy. so forgetting one is no big deal.

I don't take mine but every once in a while and My soon is perfectly healthy

set an alarm as a reminder

im afraid the less folic intake will cause birth defects

@sophiesmom7, your doctor really told you to do that? I was told not to ever double up, just to take it the next day

No nothing going to happen just when you remember take it like you normally would

I double up the next day when I realize I forgot. I take one in the morning and one in the late afternoon. That's what my doctor tells me to do.
