Hi all,

I went to tesco yesterday to buy some more folic acid and they didnt have any on the shelves so i ask at the counter and the lady said they had stopped getting it in, as far as she knew it had been discontinued!!

This was the tesco own brand, can i ask you all what u all take and where u get it from?

Hi Hayley, I have been taking Morrisons own (cheap and cheerful). I know alot of ladies take the pre natal vitamins, but I find them really expensive.

Why dont you get the tesco prenatal/pregnancy tabs? They still sell them as i just bought another batch yesterday. Its about £2.90 or something for a months worth...

Cant believe there's a folic acid shortage- madness!! lol...

I take the Sanatogen Pronatal which can be taken pre-conception and throughout pregnancy - Sainsbury's had a good offer of £8 for 3 months' worth. I actually work for tesco's and not sure why they discontinue things like that - it's a mystery to me!

Funny that. I take Boots own Mum to be Plus pre-natal vitamins with folic acid and other good stuff such as iron and ginger. When I went to renew my supply, I had to go to 8 different Boots to find them as they are being discontinued too. I bought 6 months supply as I really find they suit me but don't know what I'll do after that.

I wonder why they stop these things when they are so in demand?
