"I stopped taking my pill in August in order to try and get pregnant. Should I take vitamins?"

Yes, it is recommended to take a supplement of folic acid at least 3 months before conception and throughout pregnancy to help prevent neural tube defects. If you have a well-rounded diet, you may not need multivitamins, but folic acid is still important. It's best to consult with a healthcare provider for personalized advice on supplements during pregnancy.
