Folic acid supplements in late pregnancy linked to childhood asthma.

Hi ladies,

Thought some of you may be interested in this. Both me and my OH have asthma, so our little one may be doomed anyway, however I spoke to my MW and she said there was no need for me to be taking folic acid after 12 weeks. I know some drs have different advice so you might want to talk to yours if this study is something that you are thinking about...
