Hello
Welcome here.
Folic acid is an essential supplement in first trimester of pregnancy. You must continue with. It does not increase risk of miscarriages. Rather it prevents congenital anomalies in baby.
You must take fibrous diet to aid in watery stools. Drink lots of water to avoid dehydration.
Consult your gynecologist and discuss these issues.
Hope this helps.
Thanks.
