ultrasound

Hey lady's!
Was just wondering how far along you all were before your first ultrasound...

Im 10 weeks and the doctor hasn't advised me on any pregnancy vitamins and im alittle worried that not taking them can harm the baby?

Not taking prenatals can't harm the baby, they're not mandatory

I had my first ultrasound at 10 weeks and that is also when I started taking prenatals. I wasn't advised by the doctor of whar prenatals to take we just went to the pharmacy and got some....as long as your taking something im sure its not the end of the world.

Not that I know, my body hid my pregnancy for 20 weeks, and I have a healthy baby boy, at the time I lived with my uncles, and they smoked a lot around me. And hes still good and healthy, but I also take prenatals now. But you should be fine. Or, if it makes you feel better, ask your doctor.
