[QUOTE="NicoleC1971, post: 1767628, member: 365308"] How many weeks are you? Congratulations and hope you are feeling well.Folic acid is not reported to be toxic in higher doses and Patrick Holford recommends 800 mcg versus the rni of 200 mcg so you could safely supplement some more or eat more wheat germ , spinach and peanuts! Best eaten with lots of B vitamins and avoid processed foods but you will know that anyway because you are successfully low carbing and have reduced the root cause of your pre diabetes by doing this (you are essentially non diabetic but need to watch that your bs doesn't continue to creep up). The root cause being insulin resistance. The best thing you can do for your baby is to carry on with this way of eating given that during the last trimester of your pregnancy those hormones will cause more insulin resistance and you may well be in line for gestational diabetes and the complications that this brings.
