Hi,
Yes. That's absolutely okay. You should continue Folinin, Folvite, and Shelcal. As you have already entered into second trimester of pregnancy, you can also add on iron supplements under guidance of your gynecologist.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
