Hey everyone,
So my husband and I had to have a TFMR for spina bifida in December. This month we found out we were expecting again. The problem is we were not planning on this as we wanted to wait a little longer. I had been takiing the increased dose of folic acid but not regularly yet (missed a few days sometimes a week). This moth we also had several friends come into town and had university graduation and alumni weekend footbal games etc. so we had consumed A LOT of alcohol this moth (hence the unprocted encounter and resulting pregnancy took us 9 months last time and this time it took one drunken night!) This month I was actually pretty consistant with the folic acid thank god. But my question is has anyone with a previous experience with spina bifida had a healthy pregnancy if they were not taking folic acid or not taking it consistantly?
Thanks so much!
