Reply to comment by KetosisMD in Analysis showed that 65.6% of women who took extra Vitamin D gave birth naturally. The study analysed results from the MAVIDOS trial which involved 965 women being randomly allocated an extra 1,000 International Units (IU) per day of vitamin D during their pregnancy or a placebo. by Wagamaga
Except that Vitamin D and Folic Acid are known to be atagonistic.
So, if you dose too much Vitamin D, it decreases Folic Acid and places your baby at risk of birth defects.
As always, these things are a balance.

Too much D lowers folic acid.
This paper says sun (ultraviolet rays) exposure Lowers folate not vitamin D
> Vitamin D and folate are two unrelated nutrients with disparate sensitivities to UVR; vitamin D is synthesised and folate is degraded in the skin following UVR exposure.
