Is Fefol Needed To Take During Pregnancy?

I am 16 weeks pregnant but I stopped taking fefol around 12 weeks, my iron levels were fine when I had a cheek up. But I'm wondering should I start taking fefol again? It made me a little sick when I was taking it but I'm think about the baby and think I should start taking it again...???

Hey thanks for your faith in the health care Magic
I have gone through your question and I understood your problem.
As pregnancy advances there is progressive haemodialysis and it causes decreased haemoglobin. So even if your haemoglobin is normal now you should take it.If you encounter any problems then you should consult your doctor. Thank you.
