I just became pregnant, and the doctor said that folic acid can be added. Why would expectant mothers supplement folic acid?

    Early motherhood is the period of growth and development of the fetal baby's central nervous system. The baby needs a lot of folic acid in the mother's stomach to promote the development of the nervous system. If the pregnant mother lacks folic acid, it will adversely affect the development of the baby's brain and nervous system.
