Pre-natal vitamins: Although a "balanced diet" does provide essential vitamins for pregnancy, taking pre-natal vitamins is a good idea to make certain that the growing fetus has adequate supplies, Some pre-natal vitamins do not require prescriptions, so ask a pharmacist to recommend some.

No: It is unlikely to do you any good. These ridiculous doses also can mess up lab work, especially in endocrinology. Let your physician know you are doing this. There’s no reason to think you are endangering Baby. Congratulations on your pregnancy.
