Hi

I'm currently 4+3 with dc2. (I kniw very early days yet)

I bought some multi vitamin tablets with iron to take. I'v took one and then read the packaging and it said you should not take if your pregnant unless advised by your doctor as it includes Vitamin A.

Now i'm panicking! Will 1 tablet have any impact..

Tell me im not the only one who has done something like this and you've been fine??

In the nicest possible way - relax. One tablet isn't going to do anything!

I ate rare steak and Brie throughout my pregnancy - that baby is now a strapping 15 month old.

One tablet is fine but stop taking them. You shouldn't be taking vitamin a during pregnancy as can cause anomalies. Have a look for a pregnancy vitamin or just take folic acid & vit d
