A member asked:
Premature birth./spina bifida. is it possible to happen again?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Spina bifida: Spina bifida has become much rarer now with the introduction of Folic Acid in the diet. One needs to take the supplement well before the pregnancy and this has nicely reduced the incidence of the disease but it is still not ye 100% but clearly better than before.
