Yes: Most people do fine will pills. Some women are low on iron and can't tolerate any form of iron pill. Keeping Folic Acid in the normal range is important to avoid problems with early development of the embryo day 21- 29 of the pregnancy is when the neural tube closes at both ends. You don't want to be low on Folic Acid then. (risk of spina bifida, cleft lip or worse).
