Hi! You can start taking pregnancy vitamins straight away. They have folic acid in them but also Vitamin D and others that can help to supplement your diet. Eating healthily during pregnancy is important but it's a lot easier said than done, especially in the early weeks as you may be feeling sick for a while! So just eat what you can manage and make sure to drink plenty. X

Start straight away. Your midwife will make sure you are taking folic acid and vit d.

I'd start trying to eat healthily as well. Supplements are exactly that a supplement to an already healthy or unhealthy diet. The web will be full of information on great and tasty healthy food to eat while pregnant and you'll want to instill healthy habits with your new addition. Good luck!
