I stopped probably at 30 weeks I completely forgot about it 😂🤦🏾♀️

I stopped at 12 weeks as my midwife told me I didn't need to take them after that, probably because I'd gotten the needed folic acid in that time. They made me soo constipated so that was music to my ears 😂

I stopped at 12 weeks as that's what my midwife said to do 🤷🏻♀️

I stopped at 12 weeks, my midwife told me the baby doesn’t need folic acid at this point. I did keep taking vitamin D after this point on he advice though and I’m still taking it at 37 w 4 d 😊

Thanks ☺️ think I may stop now they make me a little sick

May take vitamin D after asking the midwife at my appointment tomorrow thanks ❤️

I’m taking through the entire pregnancy and will continue afterwards too

I've been told to continue taking them until birth (and beyond if I have any left) but I am low on B vitamins and iron so maybe that's why?

I'm still taking mine (currently 38 + 5 weeks). Was recommended to continue as it contribute to a balanced diet. I also wanted more vitamin D in winter months so didn't see a reason to stop personally

I’m still taking pregnacare max until I give birth, my midwife makes sure I’m still taking them at every appointment

I didn’t really stop, I just keep forgetting to take them although they are right infront of me every morning, there’s no harm taking them all throughout pregnancy and even when breast feeding but it’s not important to have them, with my first I took them all the way through and a few months into breast feeding to finish the boxes off 😁
