I spoke to my midwife the other day as I was worried as I wasn't able to take my folic acid due to my sickness still being bad.
She said not to worry as you only need to take it up to 13 weeks because it's is only to help baby's spine develop, after 13 weeks the spine should be fully developed
So no you don't need folic acid
However I have a permanent vitamin d deficiency so I have to take vitamin d every day for the rest of my life, but definitely while pregnant as it helps their bones to develop
