Two-thirds of pregnant women are deficient in iodine, risking giving birth to children with reduced intelligence. Vitamin D: Adequate levels of vitamin D are necessary for the mother during pregnancy to properly absorb calcium. In addition, vitamin D is essential for normal bone growth and development in children. Folic acid (Vitamin B9): Folic acid contributes to the growth of maternal tissues during pregnancy, to the normal synthesis of amino acids, to normal hematopoiesis and to the metabolism of homocysteine.
