The most common one is Folic acid or folate which is a B vitamin. It is also referred to as vitamin B₉.

vitamin b and c can cause serious birth defect
Excess vitamin A during pregnancy can lead to teratogenic effects, causing harm to the developing fetus. It is important for pregnant women to avoid excessive intake of vitamin A to prevent potential birth defects.
Vitamin A in too high of doses can cause birth defects so the amount you get in your daily diet and your prenatal vitamin should be enough.

It's generally recommended to stop taking high doses of vitamin A at least one month before trying to conceive. This is to reduce the risk of potential birth defects associated with excessive vitamin A intake during early pregnancy. However, it's essential to consult with a healthcare provider for personalized advice, as individual health needs may vary.
Ideally, take folic acid if you are trying to conceive (in the form of a pre-natal vitamin). Folic acid makes the most difference (in my understanding) in the first trimester of pregnancy as that is when neural tube and brain development is most involved.
