Ooh we could be due date buddies again
(since Liz abandoned me, it'll be nice to have someone familiar )

It's APO folic. Teeeeeny tiny little yellow pills, same size as BCP. They 800mcg each, so easy.
$14 for 120 tablets.

Pharmacy

This is what the box looks like.

It's about the size of a cotton reel.

Thats the one Ive got to Charly, and Ive just started taking a pregnancy multi vitamen too - which has some folic acid in it as well.

They told me I could have both, as I wanted to stop taking Centrum while TTC and they suggested replacing that for the pregnancy multi - so Im still getting my multi, it didnt quite have enough folic acid in it though so thats why Im taking the same one as you as well.
TTC 6 years
IVF it is
IVF/ICSI round one
10 eggs, 8 mature, 3 fertilised BFN
IVF/ICSI #2 = 22 eggs!
20 mature, 15 fertilised, 1 fresh transfer and 2 frosties
BFN
2 Frosties still in freezer thank god
