Hi,
Thanks for query.
Your period is delayed,wait for some more time to do pregnancy test at home.
You should not worried about folic acid,it is advisable to take 3 month before you are planning to concieve.
So don't worry.You had no overdose of folic acid,it is useful in neural development of foetus.
GOOD LUCK.
Take care.
