First pregnancy, blur mum 🤰😂

Hi mummies! 😊 This is my first pregnancy, and I’m currently 17 weeks pregnant. I’ve noticed that many mums seem to be taking various supplements throughout their pregnancy. My gynae hasn’t mentioned anything apart from folic acid, so that’s the only supplement I’ve been taking so far. Is that normal? Are there any other supplements that are considered essential or recommended during pregnancy? Just wondering what everyone else is taking. Thanks in advance! ❤️

Hi mama, honestly folic acid is the main one your gynae would push for, so you're on track. Some mums take additional stuff like iron, calcium, or omega-3, but a lot depends on your diet and blood work results, so it's worth asking your gynae at your next visit if she thinks you need anything else based on your health. Every pregnancy is different, and what matters most is that you're following your doctor's advice rather than trying to match what everyone else is doing.
