Default Vitamins/Supplements in First trimester

We're super happy seeing our 16 wk baby's ultrasound. The heartbeat was fine and the baby's length and measurements are right. Currently, I'm taking multivitamins and ferrous sulfate. My OB told me that she'll add some calcium later on. I'm thinking of drinking pregnancy milks but my OB says that my multivits and ferrous sulfate are enough. To all expecting moms out there, what kind of multvits and other supplements are you taking? Thank you.

I'm on my 6th week and currently taking Folic Acid, Iron and Healthy Start multivitamin supplement with 10mcgs of vitamin D. Those are what my GP has prescribed me so far.

Sodium ascorbate is for those people who are more acidic. Usually, some acidic tend to have an upset stomach taking a regular ascorbic acid.
