Let's start with this...
Folic Acid and Pregnancy
Every year, about 3,000 infants are born with neural tube defects (NTDs), according to the CDC. These defects include spina bifida and anencephaly, a condition in which the brain is not properly formed or is at least partly missing. Children who survive are often left paralyzed for life.
NTDs are preventable if mothers-to-be take folic acid before and during their pregnancy. Thanks to better screening, public health information campaigns, and folic acid fortification of breads and other grain products, the incidence of NTDs has dropped in recent years.
Not to mention the opportunity to start eating better, quitting drinking, stopping certain medications like ibuprofen etc. There are a lot of reasons women ought to try to find out as early as possible if they are pregnant.
In a perfect world, the pregnancy is planned, the mother is taking pre-natal vitamins before she even conceives, eats a well rounded diet etc. but it often doesn't happen that way.
