Folate Vs. folic acid

Samantha

What’s the difference between the two!

I currently take 4 vitamins

2 women’s adult vitamins and 2 prenatals.

My prenatals have 800mcg of folic acid and my daily vitamins have 667 mcg of folate.

Should I continue taking both? Just take one? Change the prenatal I do take?

For my first and second pregnancy I never took vitamins at all. I’ve been taking prenatals since

December because we were TTC and we found out two weeks ago that we are expecting
