Brief Answer:
continue folic acid and vitamins daily ....
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for the query to HCM,
I understand your concern here and have seen the reports . Now that your it d3 and b12 levels are normal , all you need to do is to take the folic acid tab daily once and your husband need not take it as it is important only from the lady's point of view to take it.
Missed abortions at 1st and 3rd pregnancy cannot be reasoned as there could be various reasons, need not be anomalies but may be metabolic disorders, but that cannot be detected unless extensive studies are done. As you have one child already, the chances of next pregnancy normal should be higher as all precautions have been taken from your end.
Presently , take :-
1. folic acid 5mg daily + prenatal vitamins daily.
2. eat healthy , green leafy vegetables and balanced diet.
3. Keep yourself well hydrated and keep your weight under check.
Regards
