Hi,

Once again i welcome you all,
well its nice to post messages in indus.

well currently iam 4 months pregnant and i m having Folic acid with iron tablet
and also Calcium Capsules, both are once a day which is adviced by our Gynec.

well i like to know how often should i take these tablets upto 7 months or more.

because one of my sister told that taking more tablets during pregnancy will make the babies skin darker when born.

So please tell how often should i take these tablets.

Thanks in advance...

taking folic acid -iron tablets while being pregnant wont make your babys skin dark. The darkness in new born babies is actually good as it is an indication that they have sufficient haemoglobin. If your baby is born pale, you might experience many issues with the development of the baby . So don't forget your folic acid-iorn pills. Calcium tablets are to supplement you and your baby in having sufficiently formed bones. You are to take these pills for as long as the gyanec suggests and don't discontinue this at the suggestion of a friend, if you want a healthy baby.
