Would Folic Acid tablets causing uncomfortness

[hutha.89]

Hi Mummies!!

Hope everyone is doing fine...

I am 8 weeks pregnant with my first baby.. ) Recently went for my first check up with Dr Dolly Wee @ Mt E..

She prescribed me
Folic Acid 5mg
Bcomplex

I have been taking them for the past 3 days.. Since then I have been feeling very uncomfortable.. My stomach is upset and feels bloated.. I cant sleep on my left.. if I do so I hear the gas growling sounds.. I vomit and I taste the folic acid tab..

What am I supposed to do.. I also dont wanna stop taking the tabs as I heard it is good for baby's growth..

Cld it be the b complex instead? Ur Folic pill is quite small right?

But shd be ur morning symptoms making you nausea bloated and stuff.. Vomit is quite common unless u get too dehydrated then it's a concern....u r almost done with ur first tri soon.. Will feel much better in weeks to come! But if u think u really can't stomach it give ur gynae a call

Hey congrats on ur bb.

My suspicion is that it's ur MS working up and that there is no problem with the supplements (esp the folic acid - i presume it's the small yellow tablet?).

I am not sure abt that.. But when I vomit I tasted the folic acid tab.. I assumed thats the cause.. I did call the clinic.. Nurse said to stop taking the tabs for the next 3 days and see how it is.. Lets see..

I took my Folic acid pill just before I sleep. Seems better than to take in the morning. Anyway my MS started around wk5 till about 13weeks.

By right , folic acid tablets shouldn't aggravate the morning sickness.
In fact you can find folic or folate in our daily food eg bread .....
