Prenatal vitamins + Anmum milk

Does any expecting mummies here was prescribed 21st Century Prenatal vitamins and drinking Anmum Materna at the same time? I read the label that the vitamins already have 800mg of folic acid + some amount of the same in the anmum milk. Is too much folic acid good or dangerous for pregnancy? I still have ½ a packet of the milk powder & I was prescribed the vitamins today.

Nope. My gynae told me it’s not necessary. Cos I was prescribed with Obimin (contains folic acid) and another folic acid. So taking pregnancy milk will be overkill. Was advised to take fresh milk instead.

Yes, I remember I was told to stop taking the 5mg folic acid at 14 weeks where gynae prescribed me the new multivitamin which is replaced by obimin and that vitamins already contains 800mg of folic acid. Trying not to overdose on folic acid cos I read it is not good for baby. So now I'm taking the multivitamins only as it contains a lot of ingredients. Really regret not asking her before I left. Now I have to wait until next month to see her.
