Folid acid 5weeks pregnancy

Hi, mummies. While waiting to get a referral letter from polyclinic to kkh, should I start eating folid acid now or wait to see doctor from kkh? If now which brand did you all buy?

1st trimester only folic acid and whatever the doctor prescribe. e.g. any hormone pills. 2nd tri then can eat multivitamins. vitamin A too much is harmful to baby development in 1st trim. Anyways you go kkh also long waiting time and will always be different doctor, only good thing is subsidised. I prefer private, can ask many things and the ultrasound equipment is better too.
