It is generally recommended to continue taking folic acid supplements until 4 to 6 weeks after birth or until the end of the breastfeeding period. If the prenatal vitamins contain folic acid, it is okay to take them as the only supplement. However, if you have specific conditions such as a history of neural tube defects in a previous pregnancy, family history of neural tube defects, or other congenital anomalies related to folic acid deficiency, you should discuss with your doctor about the appropriate dosage.
