How does Yummygums Mummy follow the advice of the NHS?Updated 2 years ago
When you stop using contraception and are trying to become pregnant, the NHS recommends taking extra folic acid (400 micrograms per day) every day. Folic acid plays a role in the development of the placenta and the process of cell division. The cell division of the fetus starts almost immediately after conception: when you don't yet know that you are pregnant. That is why it is better to have an optimal folic acid level before conception, so that your baby can develop optimally. The advice is to take 400 micrograms extra folic acid daily until the 10th week of pregnancy. Yummygums Mummy can help you with that.
