This trial is testing whether vitamin D and calcium supplementation can improve bone health and pregnancy outcomes in women with epilepsy. Women with epilepsy often have weaker bones because some seizure medications affect how the body uses vitamin D and calcium. This study will compare women who receive vitamin D and calcium supplements to women who receive standard pregnancy care, and will measure bone health in both the mothers and their babies.
Women taking seizure medications are at higher risk for weak bones, which can affect both their health and their baby's bone development. Doctors want to know if this medication can prevent those problems and lead to better outcomes for both mother and child.

You would be randomly placed into one of two groups: one group receives vitamin D and calcium supplements during pregnancy, while the other group receives standard epilepsy and pregnancy care. Throughout your pregnancy and after delivery, you will have regular visits where doctors monitor your bone health and your baby's development. Your bone metabolism will be measured through blood tests and your baby's bone health will be assessed after birth.
