Birthmoms taking Folic Acid

Folic acid is a B vitamin that can be found in some enriched foods and vitamin pills.

This vitamin can prevent birth defects of the baby's brain & spine.

Brain defects can cause learning disabilities; can cause a defect that causes the baby to die shortly after birth, and more.

Spine defects can cause the baby to have the lower part of their body paralyzed so they will not have control of bowel or bladder.

Many birth defects can be prevented if women get enough folic acid every day.

Folic acid can help form a baby's brain and spine.

It takes a small effort to get enough Folic Acid but it makes a BIG difference.
