about 7 weeks a few questions

[NewMommy1228]

I am about 7 weeks along and i have my first appointment on the 5th of August. I am 22 years old, will be 23 by the time our little Miracle baby comes along. I wasnt supposed to be able to get pregnant due to Uterine Cancer and an ectopic pregnancy at 15 (keep rude comments to self) I am very excited for this baby as is my Boyfriend of 8 years. I havent taken prenatal pills yet because i am unsure which ones i want to take. Any suggestions/warnings? And also has anyone had anxiety since they found out?

Aw I would of thought u would have had an appointment earlier than that since u had problems before. I've been taking folic acid and iodine tablets :-) I'm in nz, I assume they r relatively the same all over the world. Good luck and congrats :-) hope  goes smooth for u

I would just recommend that to give your baby the best help for development that whichever prenatal you choose (which you can get over the counter, or your doctor could prescribe) just make sure that what you get has DHA in it, it's to aid in brain and eye development, and a lot of doctors recommend this. With an previous ectopic pregnancy, and being early on, it would be beneficial to get the most out of a prenatal, and not all of them contain DHA, but it is a very good thing to have.

Gummies. The regular prenatals make me so sick. The gummies work well. Also take with breakfast or dinner so it's not too hard on your tummy. Congrats for beating the odds and getting your little miracle!!
